Maryport Roman dig ends
An archaeological dig in Maryport has now ended. Previous evidence found suggested the settlement had been occupied by Romans before the reign of Hadrian.
8 week ancient dig ends
An archeological dig in West Cumbria ends today after a successful eight week project.
Over 80 volunteers have helped uncover part of a Roman settlement in Maryport.
All the items that have been recovered will now be taken away to be assessed and analysed.
While the field will be restored to pasture, there's still a lot of work to be done.
