Iron Age Roundhouse

Continuing Display

Weston Park Museum

Make yourself at home in the Beneath Your Feet gallery’s Iron Age roundhouse.

 

During the Bronze and Iron Ages people lived in roundhouses with their extended families. The houses were windowless, but the doorways often faced south-east or east and would catch the morning sun.

Gather your younger ones around the ‘fire’ and enjoy a story or two.
