The country included in this area lies to the east of Tunbridge Wells, and embraces the picturesque East Sussex-Kent borderland with the villages of Goudhurst, Lamberhurst, Wadhurst and Ticehurst, comprising a district of thirty-five square miles. It lies principally in the southern part of the Medway basin, though it also takes in a portion of the watershed between that and the Rother basin, the divide being formed by the high ground of Ashdown Forest (Crowborough) and Rotherfield to the west, continuing eastward to Wadhurst, Ticehurst, Cranbrook and beyond. Geologically and tectonically the main features of interest centre round the compound Crowborough-Ticehurst fold, extremely fractured in its eastern development, and in the relationship of that fold to the more northerly Chiddingstone-Pembury anticline, already alluded to in a previous paper.

The Independent Historical Research Group (IHRG) started from small beginnings when four close friends expressed an interest in examining the known Romano-British iron industry site at Bardown, near Ticehurst in East Sussex. A metal detecting find in 2006 of a rare medallion of Antoninus Pius, which the British Museum thought could have been presented to "someone of importance", posed questions over the significance of the site. This developed into a project which proved to be an adventure in the study of the landscape over an area of six square miles with discovery following discovery, attracting the interest of both local people and those from further afield.
