What did the Romans do for us?”

 They  built roads that stretched from Lands End to John O Groats. Well, not quite, but not far off. 

How did they build those roads that went for miles in  dead straight lines? The talk takes us back 2000 years and with surveying techniques from back then, all will be revealed.
