An archaeological dig at a Roman fort in Sandwich has uncovered evidence of the Roman coastline – two miles inland from where it is today.
 
Experts from English Heritage have been carefully examining the fort as part of a month-long excavation project that is nearing its conclusion.
 
They have also discovered the remains of a 90-metre long stretch of collapsed wall as well as Roman coins and fragments of Italian marble dating back to the first century AD.
