'Excavations at the Berth, a low-lying marsh fort near Baschurch'
With Professor Henry Chapman
A wonderful start to OBHAG's year with an account of the recent excavations of this enigmatic site which is surrounded by marshy peatland. An iron age fort and an enclosure are linked by interconnecting causeways, while a Romano-British copper alloy cauldron in remarkable condition was found submerged in the peat at the edge of the nearby lake.Entry:Visitors £5 Members £2
