In July 2003 the Community organised a Roman Fun Day in order to create a wider local knowledge of our Romano Heritage. The day was supported by the Devon Museum service, North Devon Archaeology Society, Ace Archaeology, and representatives of the Devon County Council and Exeter University. On the day many Romano trades were demonstrated and iron was smelted in the village once again.
