Boltby Scar Excavation

 In September 2009, we undertook a small excavation at Boltby Scar, North Yorkshire, on behalf of the North York Moors National Park Authority. Now that this season’s work has  been completed you can read or download the interim report by clicking here.

During our time on site we produced a Boltby Blog. Further information about the archaeology of the North York Moors National Park can be found here.

We hope to return to Boltby during the August and September 2010, so if you’re interested in lending a hand (no experience necessary as full training will be given), then watch this space! Thanks to everyone who came to help last summer - we couldn’t have done it without you.

If you want to come digging with us this year, you’ll need a trowel (see below), stout shoes/boots (with as little tread as possible) and weatherproof clothing.
