Artefacts found at nature reserve
Human remains and Roman artefacts have been unearthed in an Iron Age ditch at a new nature reserve in Cambridgeshire.
Archaeologists made the discoveries at a former quarry at Cherry Hinton, near Cambridge, which is to open to visitors for the first time in 100 years.
East Pit has been transformed by the Cambridgeshire Wildlife Trust into a haven for wild flowers and birds.
