We’re pleased to be contributing to this year’s Essex Festival of Archaeology, where our team will be sharing results from recent excavations at Great Chesterford, a site that’s proving to be one of the most illuminating early Saxon settlements we’ve investigated.
When: Thursday 24 July 10am-5pm
Where: Cressing Temple Barns, Witham Rd, Cressing, Braintree CM77 8PD
.
Mark Hinman and Charlotte Lockwood will present their findings from this exceptional site, which sheds new light on the complexity and character of early medieval life in the region. Their talk will highlight key phases of occupation and some of the discoveries that make the site at Great Chesterford so significant.
Alongside the talk, Sian O’Neill and the finds team will be displaying a selection of the great artefacts from the excavation, offering visitors a close-up look at the material culture of 5th- to 6th-century Essex.
If you’re heading to the festival, we’d love to see you there!
