As part of our ‘Out of the Box: unlocking collections at Epworth Old Rectory’ project, made possible by National Lottery players, we are once again delivering a series of archaeology excavations at the Old Rectory in 2025.

We are running various essions that you can involved with including – children’s sessions, community sessions and more in depth training sessions – check out our events page for further details and to register your interest – and NOW you can book via Eventbrite.

Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd August

Saturday 9th and Sunday 10th August

No experience is necessary as we have archaeologists and experienced volunteers on hand to assist. Spaces to take part are limited so please book early to avoid disappointment.

Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

If there aren’t any spaces available or you don’t want to take part in the dig we welcome visitors to observe. You’ll be able to watch how a dig takes place and be there if we discover any fascinating finds. Refreshments will be served throughout the day.

Participation in the digs is completely free as part of our project ‘Out of the Box’ funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund. A huge thanks to National Lottery players who have made this project possible.
