Water and fertile ground made Newington attractive to our earliest ancestors - and the creatures who shared the land with them.

An Iron Age settlement that thrived here was quickly adopted by the Romans. An archaeological investigation from 2018-2019 uncovered extraordinary detail that changed what we thought we knew of this area.
