DIG WATCH: Mapperton Day 1 (Patreon)

Dig Watch is on site at a Time Team x-crew dig. We're spending three days in the picturesque Dorset village of Mapperton. Will Time Team uncover evidence of Roman activity here? Follow along on Patreon for exclusive daily updates from the excavation.

Ex-crew is our small team who, with limited resources, set out to answer one archaeological question in just three days. Led by Derek Pitman and Lawrence Shaw the team are opening their first trenches on site. Martyn Williams speaks to the archaeologists and metal detectorists who are hard at work on day one.

What do you think the mysterious features on the geophysics could be? Let us know in the comments and join us tomorrow for another Dig Watch episode from site.
