Here at South East Searchers, we usually look for history underground but there is also a lot of history hidden in names. Today, we will be looking at what names can tell us about the history of a place. The ending “Chester” is well known as an indicator that somewhere was important in Roman times – the city Chester being a prime example but Portchester, Winchester, Cirencester all being well known. This can be a bit misleading though as the Romans didn’t name towns that way.

Thanks to all that braved the weather today, we had plenty of muddy signals to dig, and a few nice finds along the way! See you on the next adventure!

What can you expect to see here? Upcoming events, discussions of how a particular rally went, notable wins, general news about the club... basically, whatever is on our mind. It is also a chance to get to know us. So, onward and upward and keep soil under your coil.
