Sudbrook Camp

Sudbrook Camp, Sudbrook NGR ST 505 874

Follow lane past Portskewett Church and park in the village of Sudbrook, cross railway line and follow paths around the south side of the houses.
The camp is a large multi-vallate Iron Age promontory fort partly eroded away by the sea. Excavations in 1934-6 and again in 199 showed that the camp reached its full extent in the 2nd century BC but the interior was remodelled in the early Roman period. A ruinous medieval chapel lies to the north of the defences. Sudbrook Village was built to house the workers who dug the Severn Railway Tunnel between 1873-86, one of the most heroic of Victorian civil engineering achievements. Rising high above the other buildings, are the Engine House, that still pumps the tunnel dry, and the Fan House, that keeps it ventilated.
