We came up with a “guess the era of the artefact” for the @ApplefieldsSchl fair stall earlier on today. Assisted by elder son as the start to his work experience week😉. Younger son not so impressed… much happier watching his iPad!

OK archaeology types… I’m after ideas! @JKcomarc is doing a stall at a school fair, spreading lurve of archaeology to others, we’ll have a load of “finds” to handle/b fascinated by, ideally we could do with a “game”, on an archaeological theme 4 fundraising. Thanks!😉 ideas?!



Lovely morning for a meet up on the Sheriff Hutton motte and bailey with a couple of history society members. Very different, and very interesting.

Would you be interested in doing an archaeology course at a venue south of York/north of Selby? If you have 5 minutes spare we’d be keen to hear your thoughts via this survey.. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI… many thanks!


It’s been great volunteering with @ApplefieldsSchl over the past few weeks. facebook.com/10006977903612…

A group of Occupational therapists from Wakefield visited us at the Skipwith Moated Site dig yesterday, as part of their team away day. It was great to have them! Let us know if your team might be interested in visiting a site, learning about it and about what goes on.

A simplified summary of the Archaeology in the trench at Skipwith Moated Site. Seem to have an earlier (say 1200s) Hall with a 1400s rebuild and then a smaller Georgian house.

Governments make deliberate choices about what they prioritise and invest in. The choices this government is making are cruel & heartless &show no respect to millions in this country. Experts are ignored instead of being asked to be part of the solution. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
