Gibbs lecture

CBA East Midlands Group summer tour of an archaeological landscape will this year take place in Nottinghamshire, looking at Old Ox ‘hillfort’ in the morning and being shown King John’s Palace at Clipstone by the team from Mercian Archaeological Services in the afternoon.

The tour is free, and anyone is welcome, but let David Ingham at david.cba-em@albiondi.plus.com know in advance if you want to join us: we need to keep a check on numbers, and also know whom to expect on the day. 

The format is a series of presentations on a wide range of topics, presented by archaeologists, historians and community groups. There are stalls hosted by archaeological organisations with opportunities to handle artefacts, and a fabulous bookshop selling general interest and academic books on all aspects of history, science, archaeology and conservation. DAS will have a stand.
