Investigation of Roman and Iron-Age habitation in Oxspring, Barnsley is awarded National Lottery Heritage Fund support
A local community archaeological group has obtained funding for a trial excavation of a local site which could be associated with Iron-age habitation as well as with the Romans. Thanks to National Lottery players, The National Lottery Heritage Fund has awarded Oxspring Parish Council £9,960 for this dig in Roughbirchworth, Oxspring, after a geophysical survey found probable archaeological features which had been described on old maps as ‘Iron-age camp’. A number of finds have also been
made including Roman coins and brooches (photo). A spokesperson for the group, Barry Tylee said – ‘this is an exciting opportunity to discover whether there was more Roman and Iron-age activity in our area than previously thought. Thanks to money raised by National Lottery players, we can explore this further and we are keen to involve as many people as possible from the local community’. The trial excavation will take place from the 1st – 12th August and if you wish to be involved please join our Facebook page (Roughbirchworth Community Excavation Group) and register your interest.
