Middlewich was founded by the Romans as Salinae on account of the salt deposits around it, as it was one of their major sites of salt production. Middlewich lies across the King Street fault, which follows King Street and then continues roughly following Brooks Lane.[1] Salinae is taken to be the Roman name for "the salt workings" [2] and it also appears to be the name given to Droitwich. During this time the Romans built a fort at Harbutts Field (SJ70216696), to the north of the town,[2][3] and recent excavations to the south of the fort have found evidence of further Roman activity[4] [5] including a well and part of a preserved Roman road. A further excavation in 2004 in Buckley's Field [6] has found further evidence of Roman occupation. A Roman Road, King Street runs between Middlewich and nearby Northwich. It has been postulated that this was the initial route of the Roman conquest of the North West of England,[7] but evidence from pottery (in particular a scarcity of early Flavian samian ware suggests that this is unlikely. Middlewich was a junction between seven major Roman roads, and it has been known as 'Medius Vicus' (the town at the junction of the roads) in the past.[8] [9]Roman items in Middlewich LibraryA number of Roman artefacts can be found in Middlewich library, including the following References1. ^{{cite web | title=19th-20th Century Middlewich | work=Salt making sites in Cheshire | author=George Twigg | url=http://www.cheshirehistory.org.uk/Papers/Salt.htm#2.1.8 | accessdate=2006-06-26 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20060504020359/http://www.cheshirehistory.org.uk/Papers/Salt.htm#2.1.8 |archivedate = 2006-05-04}} 2. ^1 {{cite web| title=SALINAE (CORNOVIORVM)| work=www.roman-britain.org| url=http://www.roman-britain.org/places/salinae_cornoviorum.htm| accessdate=2006-05-21| deadurl=yes| archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20060509034543/http://www.roman-britain.org/places/salinae_cornoviorum.htm| archivedate=2006-05-09| df=}} 3. ^{{cite web | title=Fieldwork 1999| work=Historic Environment Fieldwork Full Summary | url=http://www.cheshire.gov.uk/Planning/NaturalHistoricEnv/Historic/NHE_Historic_FieldworkFull.htm#1999 | accessdate=2006-05-21 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20060219032150/http://www.cheshire.gov.uk/Planning/NaturalHistoricEnv/Historic/NHE_Historic_FieldworkFull.htm#1999 |archivedate = 2006-02-19}} 4. ^{{cite web | title=Fieldwork 2000| work=Historic Environment Fieldwork Full Summary | url=http://www.cheshire.gov.uk/Planning/NaturalHistoricEnv/Historic/NHE_Historic_FieldworkFull.htm#2000 | accessdate=2006-05-21 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20060219032150/http://www.cheshire.gov.uk/Planning/NaturalHistoricEnv/Historic/NHE_Historic_FieldworkFull.htm#2000 |archivedate = 2006-02-19}} 5. ^{{cite web | title=Fieldwork 2001| work=Historic Environment Fieldwork Full Summary | url=http://www.cheshire.gov.uk/Planning/NaturalHistoricEnv/Historic/NHE_Historic_FieldworkFull.htm#2001| accessdate=2006-05-21 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20060219032150/http://www.cheshire.gov.uk/Planning/NaturalHistoricEnv/Historic/NHE_Historic_FieldworkFull.htm#2001 |archivedate = 2006-02-19}} 6. ^{{cite web|title=Roman dig - update |work=Cheshire Matters |url=http://www.cheshire.gov.uk/NR/rdonlyres/52AED909-26CE-4CFF-8438-5CEDC73B7CE7/0/NovCheshireMatterssp.pdf#page=4 |accessdate=2006-05-21 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070927004303/http://www.cheshire.gov.uk/NR/rdonlyres/52AED909-26CE-4CFF-8438-5CEDC73B7CE7/0/NovCheshireMatterssp.pdf#page=4 |archivedate=September 27, 2007 }} 7. ^{{cite web|title=David Bird: The Events of A.D. 43: Further Reflections |work=BRITANNIA 33 2002, A JOURNAL OF ROMANO-BRITISH AND KINDRED STUDIES |url=http://www.romansociety.org/webbrit02.htm#bk15 |accessdate=2006-05-21 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20050612083240/http://www.romansociety.org/webbrit02.htm |archivedate=June 12, 2005 }} 8. ^{{cite book | title=The story of Bygone Middlewich | year=1936 | author=C F Lawrence}} 9. ^{{cite book | title=A List of the Latin Names of Places in Great Britain and Ireland | work=The Record Interpreter | author=Charles T.
