Embracing Autumn in the Brecks
Our quick guide for enjoying autumn to the fullest in the Norfolk and Suffolk Brecks. More
October saw the start of our Fen Edge & Rivers Archaeology project. Led by Suffolk County Council Archaeology Service this project aims to reveal the extent and condition of buried archaeology at key sites in the project area focusing on the Lark Valley. We will explore under-investigated sites and the peripheries of known sites to stitch this historical landscape together, revealing how the river and its surrounding landscape were used through time. This month we have been focusing at delivering geophysical training to volunteers at the site of West Stow Anglo-Saxon Village.
Volunteers have taken part in a four-day training course using two methods of geophysical surveying including the use of a cart and a bartington. The training is being carried out by Phase Site Investigations who have experience in heritage and commercial geophysics surveying.
You can read more about what a geophysical survey is and how the day went on the Heritage Suffolk website: Geophysics Training, West Stow
