As we celebrate the completion of Butser’s Second Saxon Hall, Project Archaeologist Trevor Creighton reflects on its completion and the incredible archaeology the house is based on.

Experimental Archaeologist Therese reflects on the deconstruction of our Glastonbury M74 Roundhouse - soon to be replaced with another exciting building - and what we hope the lifespan and condition of this building can tell us about roundhouse construction.

At the end of last year we were joined by Sarah and Barnaby from Bournemouth University for a work experience placement. During their time at the farm they helped with a huge number of different projects including re-doing our Iron Age toilet. Here Sarah tells us about the process behind this project.

Project Archaeologist Trevor describes the latest addition to our Bronze Age enclosure as a dew pond joins our Bronze Age Dunch Hill Roundhouse.

Visitors to our blog may notice a new voice amongst the blog posts! We’re delighted to welcome Thérése Kearns to the Butser team as Experimental Archaeologist, developing our research and experimental work, and how we share our projects, as we enter our 50th anniversary year next year.

From one roundhouse to another! We've moved from our Bronze Age roundhouse straight into the Iron Age!

Project Archaeologist Trevor Creighton explains our next roundhouse project - rebuilding the Iron Age roundhouse based on Glastonbury Lake Village M59.
