"A History of the County of Cornwall Part 5 Romano British Remains With a Note on the Milestones and Roads of Cornwall" is a meticulous scholarly study of the Roman presence in the far southwest of Britain. Authored by the renowned historian and archaeologist F. Haverfield, this work provides a comprehensive catalog and analysis of the physical evidence left by the Roman Empire within the boundaries of Cornwall. From architectural fragments to everyday artifacts, Haverfield examines the extent to which Roman culture and administration permeated this distinct region.

A significant portion of the volume is dedicated to a specialized note on the Roman milestones and road systems of Cornwall. This section offers critical insights into the infrastructure and connectivity of the province, identifying the routes that linked remote mining areas and settlements to the wider Roman world. The text serves as an essential reference for historians, archaeologists, and anyone interested in the ancient history of Cornwall and the broader Romano-British period. By synthesizing topographical data and archaeological finds, Haverfield creates a vivid picture of a landscape shaped by imperial influence, making this an invaluable contribution to the historical record of the British Isles.
