Projects

We aim to make archaeology as accessible and enjoyable as possible. In order to achieve this, we seek all opportunities to research and promote archaeology, and continue to be successful in attracting external funding for archaeological projects. In 2006-07, we successfully attracted external funding for archaeological projects to a value of more than £300,000, with most of this coming from English Heritage.

We continue to be significantly involved in outreach and education projects. For further information about archaeological and outreach projects the section is involved in, please select the links below.
