For the past ten days a team from Newcastle University and the University of Sheffield have undertaken an archaeological excavation at Anchor Church Field, near Crowland.
This work has identified important medieval remains, at a location traditionally associated with St Guthlac – a saint who lived as a hermit in the Fens during the seventh and eighth centuries AD.
On Saturday (August 14) they will be providing the public with tours of their site. Tours will last approximately 30 minutes and take place on the hour between 10am and 3pm. Access onto the site will be provided at around five minutes to the hour, shortly before the commencement of each tour.
Saturday will be a normal working day for the archaeologists so they kindly ask that questions are saved for those delivering the tours, rather than people working in the trench.
Tours will be conducted from two fenced viewing points, which can be accessed via walkways in the crop.
