This year’s Heritage Open Days are almost upon us, running from Thursday 10th September to Sunday 13th September the open days give the public access to usually closed and out of bounds buildings and sites. The doors are being open at St. Leonard’s Church and of course we have our ongoing dig just outside and adjacent to St. Leonard’s Square. We will have a display in the church too explaining a bit about the dig and the background to the site.
Also open and down the hill is Long Street Methodist Church and School Buildings. We have a display set up there in the corridor and a few artefacts from our recent Tonge Hall Meadow Investigations on show in the School Hall. We hope you can visit both locations to view MAS at work and the interesting material we have found.
