The Jewry Wall is a substantial ruined wall of 2nd-century Roman masonry with two large archways, located in Leicester, England [1]. It formed the west wall of a public building in Ratae Corieltauvorum (Roman Leicester), alongside public baths whose foundations were excavated in the 1930s and are open to view [1]. The wall stands alongside St Nicholas' Circle and St Nicholas' Church and gives its name to the adjacent Jewry Wall Museum [1].
