Caldicot is a place where people have lived, worked and worshipped in the area since at least the Neolithic period. The earliest inhabitants probably lived close to the banks of the Severn, to the south of the present-day village, augmenting any agricultural activity with hunting wild fowl in the Severnside marshes and fishing in the river itself. The remains of a Neolithic long barrow overlooking the Severn at Heston Brake, near Black Rock Portskewett, indicates the importance of the area at that time. There was considerable activity in the area during the Bronze Age. Excavations near the Nedern Brook in Caldicot Castle Country Park revealed a plank from a Bronze Age boat and complex wooden structures in the former river bed. The boat almost certainly plied its trade across the Severn with the farmers and traders of North Somerset.

During the Iron Age, the major settlements in the area were the promontory fort at Sudbrook, two miles to the east of Caldicot, and at Llanmelin, four miles to the north. These forts were centers of trade for the farmers who lived in small communities on the fertile low land of the Severn valley. Farmers from the Caldicot area will have visited these forts trading animals and crops for pottery and iron goods. With the Roman Conquest the center of local activity shifted from Llanmelin and Sudbrook to the Roman town of Venta Silurum – Caerwent. At that time the Neddern was quite a substantial waterway and it is likely that Roman trading vessels sailed up the river to Caerwent. Caldicot itself would, as in the Iron Age, have been a small agricultural and fishing community trading with the larger local settlement. Not all manufactured goods had to be obtained from outside, however. The discovery of a number of kilns near the site of Durand School, shows that coarse, gray and black pottery was produced in the village during Roman times.

With the departure of the Romans, Gwent, particularly eastern Gwent, became ‘border country’ disputed between the Saxons and the Welsh. A recent theory even argues that Llanmelin was the true site of Camelot, the center of King Arthur’s Celtic resistance to the Saxon invaders. In 1065, the Saxon Earl Harold of Wessex made incursions into the district and, according to the ‘Anglo-Saxon Chronicle’, began to build a hunting lodge at Portskewett. The lodge was promptly attacked by the Welsh, under Caradog, King of Gwent. The builders were slain and the building materials carried away. Earl Harold was never able to avenge the defeat. Having become king in January 1066, he met his death at the Battle of Hastings in October.
