Tour of Bolsover Castle and Town: Saturday 22nd June 2013
Bolsover Castle in Derbyshire occupies the hilltop site of a medieval fortress. An English Heritage guide will give us a tour
of the castle, and Clive Hart, Vice Chairman of the CBA East Midlands committee, will lead a tour of the town. See below
for the booking form — please note that advance booking is required.
Burrough Hill Iron Age hill fort project: Open Day tour, 30th June 2013, 12pm
We have arranged for our members to be given a tour of Leicester University’s excavations at Burrough Hill during the
site’s Open Day. See our ‘other forthcoming events’ page for further details.
Heart of Peakland walking tour: Saturday 7th September 2013
Graeme Guilbert will be leading a walking tour around Mam Tor and Castleton, Derbyshire. All are welcome to come
along and find out about the history of this iconic landscape, but please be aware that the ground conditions are
challenging in places — see the attached programme and the photos below for guidance.
The tour is mostly free, but a discounted group price of £6.75 does apply to the optional tour of Peak Cavern, for which
pre-booking by 3rd August 2013 is essential.
Members’ Research Day: Saturday 9th November 2013
CBA East Midlands welcomes Dr who?
We are looking for speakers at our Members' Research Day on 9th November. If you are currently aiming for a phd we
would love to hear about your research. The only criteria are that you have to be based within an archaeology
department at an East Midlands University or have a project that is within the East Midlands, and be available on 9th
November to give a presentation. Whether you are investigating migrating tribes in the Pacific or looking into the
deepest caves in Derbyshire, we welcome you to share your work. If you would like to take part in our Research Day
please contact Debbie or Carole at cbaem.events@britarch.ac.uk
To be held at Lambley Village Hall, Catfoot Lane, Lambley, Nottingham, NG4 4QF.
We are always open to new ideas for venues and speakers. If you have any particular interests or know of projects that
could be covered at future meetings, then please feel free to send your ideas to cbaem.events@britarch.ac.uk.
