Geocache Description:

A short circular walk around the site of Venta Icenorum. This series has been placed on behalf of the Norfolk Archaeological Trust with their kind permission. You can visit their website http://www.norfarchtrust.org.uk/visit.


This is the first traditional cache of a 4 cache series at the Venta Icenorum site. This series can be linked with a nearby cache (Roman Treasure, GCPQZW) and also the High Ash Farm circular.

For many years Venta Icenorum lay as just a Roman ruin until an archaeological team discovered the true importance of the site.

This was highlighted to the national public in an episode of Time Team a couple of years ago.

More info can be found here: http://www.norfarchtrust.org.uk/caistor where you can download their interactive app.

 

You are looking for a camo clipbox which contains a log and Roman treasures (kids jewellery and the like) and space for travelbugs.
