The Ermine Street Guard is a society dedicated to research into the Roman Army and the reconstruction of Roman armour and equipment.

Since its formation in 1972 the Guard has become firmly established as the leading society making such a detailed and accurate study of this subject

Each piece of equipment is made as authentically as is practicable based on recent research. Everything is made by Guard members to high standards of workmanship and accuracy and is continually being added to and improved as new information and finds become available.

Public displays are given at major Roman sites throughout Great Britain and Europe. The displays include aspects of the Roman soldier's training, the firing of artillery pieces and a static army camp display. At selected venues the Guard is also joined by two fully equipped Roman cavalrymen.

Assistance is given to Roman studies in schools, universities and other educational establishments, with visits by Guard members or the loan of armour and equipment
