    HLHS Holt and Farndon Community Archaeology Project

    Holt and Farndon

    We are hosting an introductory open day to present a cross border archaeologyproject for the communities of Holt & Farndon, giving people the chance to
    discover and get hands on with their local history.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    HLHS has discovered a potentially exciting find near the fish farm in Townfield Lane, Farndon that may be a Roman fort associated

    with Holt Roman Tile Works and Pottery.

    It is planned to excavate part of this site in September 2022.

    To learn more about this cross border project, come along to either of the two presentations on Saturday July 2nd:

    Farndon Memorial Hall 10.00-12.00, with a key talk at 11.00 a.m

    or

    Holt Kenyon Hall 2.00-4.00 p.m., with a key talk at 3 p.m.

    The key talks are by Chris Matthews, archaeologist.

    Lets aim for good turnouts at these presentations - please reply to  briansue.payne@btinternet.com if you intend to come.
