Each of the sessions explores a different theme from the past, delving into the crafts and looking at the artefacts from prehistory, the romans and the early medieval period.
With exclusive use of the Avalon Archaeology site, we’ll examine and utilise our unique reconstructed buildings as the perfect setting for hands-on learning about history and archaeology.
