A PROJECT to investigate Roman remains at East Anton and Abbotts Ann is getting under way thanks to the latest Local Heritage Initiative (LHI) Awards.
With community, school and university help, the Andover Roman Archaeology Project is being organised by the Andover History and Archaeology Society thanks to a £22,770 LHI grant.
The project will bring together evidence of the Roman period in the parishes around Andover.
There will be school packs, school visits, popular publications, a detailed publication, touring displays, talks and lively history events, as well as an exhibition in Andover Museum.
It is also planned to have an excavation at Abbotts Ann with a re-examination by Prof Barry Cunliffe of Oxford University of the Dunkirt Roman Villa site.
