Group leader Pat Hastings contactable though the bluebird sign or on 07803044238

Our next meeting is on the 5th February at 2pm in the Northumberland hall our speaker is Neil Coldrick the Dig Director with Holcombe Moor Heritage Group. He will be presenting on the “Medieval iron working in Holcombe Valley”

I am looking into arranging a visit to Vindolandia on Hadrian’s Wall. The actual site tour takes an hour with time to browse the remains then a museum visit, which takes about an hour and a half. The coach trip is about two hours each way. The proposed date is the 15th April. The cost would be around £35.

So far, I have 14 members of the archaeology group but to be viable I need 26/28. If you are interested, can you let me know before the 1st February?

"Vindolanda lies just to the south of the curtain wall of Hadrian's Wall and has a very different ‘feel’ to other sites along the Wall. It lies upon the first Roman frontier in the north – The Stanegate Road and is a stunning landscape, which lets your imagination really connect with its past."
