Tales from Iceni Territory: A year exploring past and present - Gareth Brookman

Inspired after visiting the Iron Age fort at Warham in Norfolk and realising that a remarkable ancient history of the county was hidden in plain sight, Gareth Brookman set out to record a year of exploration.

His journey starts on the western fringe of the lands once occupied by the Iceni tribes amongst the Cambridgeshire fens and then follows the old roads into their heartland. The epic story of Boudica is told as the trails lead to isolated camps, buried hoards of gold and Roman town walls.

Along the way, Gareth takes the time to stop and look at more recent history from medieval churches to WWII airfields whilst observing the natural world and the passing of the seasons as one can when walking in the company of an excitable terrier. In Tales From Iceni Territory Gareth tells the story of his travels across Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire through the year of 2022 in search of the ancient history of the region.

 Accompanied by his faithful terrier Boomer, he also takes the time to observe the natural world and the passing of the seasons.
