Discoveries in Tremain are transforming experts' understanding about prehistoric life in south Ceredigion.

A team of archaeologists, including students from all over the world, are currently excavating a 2000 year-old farmstead near Tremain.

The work is being led by Cambria Archaeology and the University of York, with the help of grant funding from CADW.

The dig started two weeks ago, and the archaeologists have already uncovered the remains of a circular house, together with pits and postholes that might provide evidence of what life was like in this part of Ceredigion during the late Iron Age.

Ken Murphy, who is directing the excavation, said: "The settlement may have been home to several families during the years between 200BC and AD100."

The public will have a chance to see the excavation in progress on Sunday, August 6, between 11am and 4pm.
