There will be tours of dig sites at stately homes and a famous chalk tower on Yorkshire’s coast, along with a live geophysical survey, walks, talks, and more.
“The festival is extraordinary,” he added. “I often say archaeology is the process in which we turn one question into five, and then 25 - that is why it is so incredibly engaging.” National Trust archaeologists and experts from the University of Bradford are inviting people to join a live geophysical survey at Fountains Abbey, where the remains of a tannery were sensationally discovered last year. In the North York Moors, there will be a talk in Helmsley, and a guided walk at Sheepwash and Scarth Wood Moor, exploring the area’s history through Neolithic times to the 1700s.
Neil Redfern, director of the Council for British Archaeology, pictured ahead of the launch of its biggest ever archaeology festival. Archaeology holds the answers, he insisted, as to how communities survived and thrived, giving insight into issues.
