Today the team really got in to the archaeology on site: most of the modern features in trench B were excavated and recorded, and we got started on trench C.

The press joined us in the morning to interview James and take photos of what we’ve been up to for the local paper.
An article will be appearing in next Thursday’s Western Gazette so keep an eye out!
Over in trench C Lucy found a big piece of burnt clay in her feature while Danni uncovered a load of Late Iron Age or very early Roman pottery (Black Burnished Ware) on the south side which made James, our site director and Roman pottery specialist, very happy.
In the evening we all headed over to Seavington St Mary to listen to James’ sold out talk about ‘Somerset and the End of the Roman Empire’ which helped to raise funds for the village shop .We were all very proud of him!
