Community archaeology

Archaeology is an important component of our heritage and we have always felt a strong responsibility to share our work with the wider community with the simple aim of fostering an understanding and enjoyment of our common past. 

 

We try and achieve this in a number of ways including:

• holding open days and activities for the public on excavation sites
• engaging with outreach events such as the national Festival of Archaeology
• taking part in symposia for the general public and local societies
• co-ordinating specific volunteers events
• student placements and work experience 
• national, regional, local TV and radio interviews
• ensuring summaries and articles on our projects are available through county journals
• contributing to academic projects
• publishing excavation monographs

 

Whether archaeology is part of your learning, your job, a hobby or a casual interest, why not bookmark this page for updated community news and opportunities for you to get involved.
