New dig at Caerau Hillfort – Getting excited yet?!

24 June 2014

The digging season for the award-winning CAER Heritage Project is upon us. Run in conjunction with the local community and Cardiff University’s School of History, Archaeology and Religion, CAER Heritage Project investigates the Iron Age hillfort in Caerau, west Cardiff. This serene site nestled among thousands of residences and a stone’s throw from a major dual carriageway, has been investigated for several years by the project and even starred in an episode of Channel Four’s Time Team with Tony Robinson. The public are invited to get involved in the trenches or as spectators; joining information is at the link. SHARE with Schools members will be getting involved at this and other CAER activities, and our faculty link Dave Wyatt is a leading member of the project. We hope to see some of you local kids and adults there!
