Week 2 is coming to a close at the Brignall Community
Excavation. It’s been a good one! Over the last couple of days on site,
attention has been focused towards preparing for the third week, which is now
confirmed and will be going ahead, as well as for the open day TOMORROW
(Saturday).
So, finds have been sent back to the office for cleaning,
ready for the open day. Plans are being formulated for extensions to Trench 2,
and further investigation of Trench 1 for next week. More practically, both
trenches have been fenced for the safety of the visitors on the open day (and
the safety of sheep thereafter).
The trenches are open to the public, and there will be
archaeologists to explain what we’ve found, tomorrow between 10am and 3pm. The
dig is then continuing into next week. New volunteers are, as always, welcome.
The days run from 9.30am until about 4pm, depending on weather – although you
are welcome to fit your volunteering around any other commitments!
