All residents of the local area are welcome to consult our collection of items about Caerwent. It includes copies of the original excavation reports from Lord Tredegar's team, 1899 - 1911, reprints of many other archaeological and historical articles, some newly written books and booklets, in fact anything of reasonable local interest.

Where possible illustrations etc have been incorporated to reinforce the local connections, like "who-found-what-and-where?"

Caerwent Parish Church has kindly provided a home for the Library - it is in the small cupboard under the Visitor's Book at the back of the Church.
You are welcome to browse through it anytime when the Church is open and not being used for services etc.

Please replace the items after using them and unless you are a paid up member of the Trust, don't remove them from the Church.

We are not able to make our full collection available in this way. However, if you don't find what you want, ring our Archivist Mark Lewis, 01633 400673, or me and we may be able to help.
