The Chepstow Archaeological Society
The Chepstow Archaeological Society (C.A.S.) was formed in January 1996 to;
to explore the Archaeology of Chepstow and the surrounding area and,
to provide a focus for local people interested in its history and pre-history.
We were actively involved in saving the Newport Ship and have appeared on Time Team.
The membership and range of activities of the Society has expanded rapidly and we now
have a full programme of talks, field visits and hands-on archaeology and training.
Maintaining a close relationship with other archaeological societies (including Monmouth Archaeology,
Dean Archaelogical Group, GADARG, Woolhope ARS and the Friends of the Newport Ship) and research organisations (GGAT, UWCN), we aim to provide coverage of a much neglected area
of the Border Marches. We publish our own magazine and newsletters for members.
We meet on the first Thursday of every month from October to April at 7.30 pm at Chepstow Conservative Club, 10, Moor Street, Chepstow, NP16 5DD. Suggested parking is in the Somerfield Car Park behind the Bus Station. Our summer outdoor programme runs from May to September. We normally start at 7.30 pm and meet at the venue.
This Programme Page is still under development. Please see our Membership Leaflet.
August - Visit to Penpergwm excavations Abergavenny
September - Prehistoric flints day at National Museum of Wales
