Today J3 went to Poulton to see the archaeological dig. We were shown round by Mr. Mike Emery and we saw archaeologists at work. They have a reconstructed henge with silver birch posts, a partly completed round house, a partly excavated chapel complete with bones (and a skull!), a dugout canoe and lots of artifacts and information in the museum. It was absolutely fascinating and we want to go again next year to see what else they have found and reconstructed. They are a charity and are probably much better at “archaeologising” than fund raising but they make visitors very welcome (they prefer you to contact them first) and are very appreciative of any donations. Their website is www.poultonproject.org
