Derwent Archaeology Group (DAG), formerly a part of Dunnington through the Ages, was formed by mutual agreement in March / April of 2006.

The aims and objectives of the DAG remain the same i.e. to investigate the history and settlement of the Derwent Ward. To date we have carried out resistivity surveys on two sites which we believe indicate the presence of Roman roads. We aim to confirm these with “digs” in the late autumn (2006). Cropping permitting, we hope to investigate a possible iron age site located close to Dunnington in 2007. Since then we have continued to undertake geophysical survey and small scale excavation on the Iron Age and Romano British Landscape around the village.

We also undertake talks and site vistits during the year.
