About the Group
The Group was set up to provide a forum in which members interested in the Romano-British period can discuss and exchange views and to encourage research, fieldwork and publication. It has become firmly established with over 100 members who enjoy a monthly lecture programme throughout the winter months as well as full-day seminars on topics of interest such as "Industry in Roman Britain" and "How Roman was Roman Britain?". Workshops are arranged to further members interests, such as a Roman Glass Day with expert, John Shepherd, and a Human Bone Day at Fishbourne Palace. A varied programme of visits to museums and sites throughout the country are also offered.
Projects which have been carried out by RSG include excavations at Abinger Roman Villa, Flexford industrial and settlement site, and in partnership with Epsom & Ewell History & Archaeology Society in excavations in Roman Ewell.
