Brean Down

Brean Down is a promontory off the coast of Somerset, England [1]. The site has been occupied by humans since the late Bronze Age and includes the remains of a Romano-Celtic Temple [1]. Human occupation dates back to the Beaker culture of the late Bronze Age [1]. There is also evidence of an Iron Age hill fort and prehistoric barrows and field systems [1]. There is evidence of a shrine dating from pre-Roman times, which was re-established as a Romano-Celtic Temple in the mid-4th century [1]. Several Roman finds including gold coins of Augustus, Nero, and Drusus, two silver denarii of Vespasian and a Roman carnelian ring were found at the site during quarrying [1].
