02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

We ran very successfully promoting and engaging the community in local archaeology, instigating guided Walks, participation in local archaeological excavations, recording sites, assisting others with Projects and generally providing educational input as required. We are much quieter now, with reduced volunteers but hope to build on this in the future.
