A museum cataloguing centuries of Roman rule in Wales is facing permanent closure, says the trust which runs it
The Segontium Roman Museum in Caernarfon, Gwynedd is on a site which experts call one of the best preserved Roman fortresses in the world.
But cash from a five-year funding deal is running out, and the trust says it may not be able to open in the spring.
The Welsh Assembly Government says it hopes a solution can be found to save the centre from closure.
Segontium Cyf, a trust made up of local people, took over the running of the centre from National Museum Wales in 2003.
Since then, the day-to-day running costs of the centre have been met through a funding deal set-up by the national museum.
