Archaeologists discover possible Roman shrine in the remains of an Iron Age hillfort

[Still Waters]

Archaeologists have discovered what they believe was a Roman shrine in the remains of an Iron Age hillfort.

They have been excavating a site near Nesscliffe in Shropshire and found a circle of worn stone surrounded by post holes.

Dr Paul Reilly, from the University of Southampton, said it suggested people had been regularly walking around something.

A team of amateur and professional archaeologists carried out five examinations of the hillfort site which is believed to have been created about 500 BC.
