From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
This is a List of governors of the Roman province of Roman Britain. Britain was a consular province, which means its governors need to be appointed consul before they could govern it. While this rank could be obtained either as a suffect or ordinares, a number of governors were consul ordinares, and also appear in the List of Early Imperial Roman Consuls. (Note: because this list has been reconstructed from inscriptions and mentions from historians, this list is incomplete and almost all dates are approximate.)
