Salmonsbury Camp - One of Europe's first known settlements

I am in the heart of the Cotswolds, just outside Bourton-on-the-Water 😍 And take a walk through a 6000 year old settlement called Salmonsbury Camp. And as a special treat, I view my first ever Iron Age Roundhouse 😱 and visit the location where they discovered a skeleton in 2014. To the northeast of Bourton-on-the-Water, in an area now occupied by Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust’s Greystones Farm Nature Reserve, exists an archaeological site and scheduled ancient monument of considerable importance. Known by its ancient name of Salmonsbury, this large prehistoric earthwork has been the focus of human activity for 6,000 years starting in the late Neolithic period and continuing through the Bronze and Iron Ages, the Roman period and on into Anglo-Saxon times (5th to 6th century A.D.). Most notable are the late Iron Age ramparts which are similar to those at other Iron Age hillforts of the Cotswolds. Salmonsbury however is unusual in that it is located on relatively low ground between two rivers Windrush and Dikler but on a well-drained gravel spread, making it highly suitable for habitation and farming. Real interest in the location first arose in the mid 19th century with the discovery there of a large number of mid Iron Age iron currency bars but a full understanding of the site came from excavations carried out by Dr D C Dunning and Mrs Helen O’Neil in the 1930s and later work by Mrs O’Neil. Thanks to Mrs O’Neil’s gift to Cheltenham museum of material from those excavations, The Wilson today holds an important assemblage of finds from Salmonsbury, especially pottery and metal objects, also documents, drawings and photographs. More recently, non-intrusive geophysical surveys have provided still more information about the site. Greystones Farm Nature Reserve: https://www.gloucestershirewildlifetr...
