Visitors to Cambridge can next week delve into the city’s mysterious iron age history with a Guided Walk around Wandlebury Hillfort.
Cambridgeshire Archaeology and Cambridge Past, Present & Future will be holding the tour around Wandlebury just outside Cambridge on Wednesday 13 June at 7pm with Jon Gibbs, the Head Ranger, leading the walk.
Quinton Carroll, County Council Archaeologist, said: “Wandlebury is not only the site of an Iron Age Hillfort, but has earlier archaeological remains, many of which are a mystery to researchers today. The site is also an important wildlife and nature preserve so I am sure visitors will have a fascinating time learning about the world which is around us but which we seldom stop to look at.
“This event is supporting the BBC’s “The Great British Story: A People’s History’, a major BBC Learning campaign which includes showcase events in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland celebrating local history and helping people find out more about their own personal history as well as that of their local area.”
To go on this guided walk please meet at the Education Centre by 7pm. The main entrance is signposted from the A1307 and there is a car park fee of £2.50. The local bus is the Stagecoach Citiplus 13X service.
