Time Team

Salisbury Plain - An Iron-Age Roundhouse (8x7)

: 18, 2001

The team venture on to Salisbury Plain, the army's largest training ground and one of Britain's finest areas of unexcavated archaeology. There is Roman pottery lying on the surface and an Iron Age fort nearby. Was there a thriving community on this barren landscape 2,000 years ago? And if so, how can the team protect the area from marauding tanks in the future?
