Several fire crews from around the island were called to a residential property in Gunville early this morning (June 2) to reports of flames coming from the back garden.
AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL investigation at a proposed residential development in Gunville has uncovered a significant Late Iron Age discovery. A roundhouse and enclosure, from the transition period from Late Iron Age to Roman society, at around 200BCE, has been described as of significant value. It is recommended a "sensitive scheme of archaeological intervention" takes place to preserve the findings. The investigation was carried out by Island business Eagle Eye Environmental Solutions. The report states: "While this site is not of national importance, its roundhouse and associated enclosure is clearly of particular cultural and social significance to the Isle of Wight, there being very little firm evidence of the nature and disposition of Islanders on the eve of the Roman Conquest.
