AMATEUR divers from Buckinghamshire played a vital role in unravelling the mysteries of Roman Britain. Chesham branch of the British Sub- Aqua Club (BSAC) have even appeared on BBC2's flagship history programme "Digging For Britain" as they helped presenter Dr Alice Roberts.

At the site of the Roman villas near Hambleden – where one villa yielded the mysterious find of the bones of 97 babies – the divers searched the Thames for artefacts and hopefully will be able to prove it was a Roman quayside. Chesham, a very active BSAC club with around 30 members and has been diving the River Thames for around two years searching for ancient artefacts to help Buckinghamshire Archaeological Society.
