The largest ever collection of Roman coins found in Britain will stay in the county of Somerset where it was unearthed.

The coins which date back over 1,700 years were found last April by Dave Crisp from Wiltshire.

The Museum of Somerset has raised £320,250 to keep the Frome Hoard and they will go on display when the museums 6.

9m revamp is completed in the summer.

Since the discovery the coins have been on display at the British Museum in London.

There are a host of heritage attractions and museums to visit and a Canal Boat Holiday gives you and your family an opportunity to visit them.

Many of the museums have free entry so you really do not need to spend a fortune to have a good time.

On your Canal Boat Holiday you choose your own itinerary you stop when you want to stop and go when you want to go.

The difficulty will be where to stop do you choose a quiet canal side museum or a city full of culture.

Do you visit an ancient castle or monument or a state of the art science museum.

Places you would normally rush by or even not notice are there to be discovered on a Canal Boat Holiday so take time and enjoy some of Britains museums.
