Rosemary Sutcliff. The Lantern Bearers, Frontier Wolf. You could start with Eagle of the Ninth as there is a series of books dealing with Romans over many Generations in Briton.

I always enjoyed Sutcliffe, Breem and Graves. I've recently finished the Ian Ross 'Twilight of Empire' series and enjoyed them very much.

Almost forgot Graham Doherty's 7-book "Legionary" series set in late 4th century AD.
