The Annual Symposium of Surrey Archaeological Society will be held online via Zoom on separate mornings - part 2 - the final part - on 13th March. 

Following the great success of the 2018 conference on the transition from Roman to Saxon in the South-East, the Roman Studies Group is arranging another such event, this time focusing on the end of the Iron Age and the start of Roman Britain in our area.

This event was originally due to be held in May 2020 but was cancelled due to the Corona virus pandemic.
