Roundhouse at Flag Fen by Deborah Holman
It was a very cold spring day at Flag Fen and quite windy. Inside the Roundhouse it was a different matter, although there was no fire lit it was surprising how much it shielded you from the elements.
Please see www.theancientmuse.co.uk for details of the Eisteddford in June which promises to be a very interesting two day event. There will be entertainment, stalls, workshops and an Art Exhibition which I am co-ordinating. The main event will be the Battle of the Bards when the first Bard of the Fens will be named.

These are incredible to look at, I have never been inside of one. It sounds like they do the job they were designed for!
I have spent the night in there actually and will be again in June, very cosy with a big fire in the middle.

So this is where some of our ancestors lived, eh? Thank you for posting this, its a great shot and informative, too.
This is a wonderful shot. I need a photo of celtic roundhouses for a dissertation – I wonder, may I use this? I will credit you, of course. Thanks, Babibell.
Thank you Babibell and yes of course you may use it
