Great excitement last week in one of the COSMIC survey sites the team uncovered a Roman wall. The results of the crop marks and the subsequent geo-phys were whole heartedly confirmed with the excavation of this wonderful wall arrangement. It was probably part of a villa or settlement high up on Bredon Hill where the Romans would have relaxed looking down through the Vale of Evesham. What an amazing thought that they would have been able to gaze down, looking at a similar topography to us. i wonder how different it would have looked?Farming, of all kinds, is my passion. I started my career at Seale-Hayne Agricultural College in Devon, and have managed farmland, crops and livestock ever since. I am now the Farms Manager at Overbury. Fanatical about the education of everybody about, growing healthy crops, farming, food production, using technology, conservation and rural life.
