ROMAN artefacts are being showcased at a Colchester museum while the town’s castle museum is undergoing a £4.2 million redevelopment.

The exhibition is at the Hollytrees Museum, which is open from Tuesday to Sunday, until it moves to the Minories on August 30.

The temporary displays are being put on while the major overhaul of Colchester Castle takes place, where new exhibitions will be on display to visitors from spring 2014.
