Bainbridge Excavation Week, Wensleydale, Yorkshire (5 day event) 22nd- 27th September 2024 Join Mercian Archaeological Services CIC in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales for this week-long excavation, in Bainbridge. The beautiful village of Bainbridge was formerly the administrative centre of the medieval forest of Wensleydale, and the magnificent Bolton Castle near Leyburn dominates the valley to the east. A Roman fort looms large over the village on the eastern side. The site of the excavation is overlooked by a late Bronze Age to early Iron Age slight univallate hillfort. This fort occupies the high ground at the top of a steep slope on the southern side of the site. The area is famous not only for its beautiful landscape, but also its world-famous cheese, and as the backdrop to the television series ‘All Creatures Great and Small’. (Please note accommodation and food are not included). £350 per person. Please Email [email protected] for details and to book your place(s). Hosted by Merican Archaeological Society CIC.
