Experiences

Explore the many  activities open to you at Hallaton Fieldwork Group. You’ll find something for every season of the year and fitness level!   Younger budding archaeologists (aged 8-16) would benefit from joining Leicestershire and Rutland Young archaeologists club https://leicestershireyac.wordpress.com/


ALL YEAR ROUND ACTIVITIES

We have monthly meetings where we plan and review our activities.  We carry out geophysical surveys, field walk and organise focussed excavations.  We clean and catalogue our finds, write up and archive our results in the public domain.     We also support ad hoc projects that reflect our members individual interests.   In addition to the field work we arrange to visit other heritage sites in and outside the Leicestershire area.  
Meeting Times are usually 7.30pm, Monday nights at Slawston Village Hall
