Secret Newark goes behind the facades of the familiar to discover
the lesser-known aspects of the town's fascinating past. Situated
on the important old Roman road, the Fosse Way, the ancestral
market town grew around the, now ruined, Newark Castle and its
large marketplace. Later, during the English Civil War, the town
was a hotbed of royalist support and was besieged three times by
parliamentarian forces. Today the town serves as a thriving and
picturesque site, boasting many heritage attractions and
activities. Newark has many secrets, and as you walk along the
streets you are walking through history. There are clear reminders
of the town's past everywhere, waiting for you to stop, look and
listen to their intriguing stories. On a journey through this
ancient town, Jillian Campbell and Mike Cox tell these forgotten or
untold tales. You may think that you know Newark, but take another
look around and you will find more than you could possibly imagine.
