What's On 2024

 

 

 

 

 

​

LAG Sessions 2024

​

We meet in the newly refurbished Archaeology Lab, a well-ventilated room in The Old School building on the Bishop Grosseteste University Campus. 

 

All activities are on a Wednesday afternoon between 1.30pm until 4.00pm, unless otherwise stated. Tea, coffee and biscuits are provided. There is no charge for members and you don’t need to book, just come along.

 

We are currently processing a large number of finds, including those from the BGU Summer Field School. The excavation was at Haw Hill, in the Swanpool area of Lincoln, uncovering a high-status medieval manor house believed to be on the site of a lost medieval hospital. There are over 10 000 pieces of tile and 2000 pot parts to wash, mark and sort, and it is anticipated these sessions will run most weeks during term time.
