Meridale Youth & Community Centre 1 High Street, Sutton on Sea, England, LN12 2ET
We'll spend two days teaching the skills of archaeological recording while spending time out on the coast on the Saltfleetby-Theddlethorpe Nature Reserve. The dunes and local beaches hold secrets of Lincolnshire's past from prehistoric peoples to more modern war-time defences; and we'll discovery some of this throughout the course.
Day 1 we'll be based in Sutton on Sea at the Meridale Centre where we will explore the local area and introduce CITiZAN's Humberside Discovery Programme.
Day 2 we'll head out to the Saltfleetby-Theddlethorpe Nature Reserve to discover more of Lincolnshire's coastal heritage and record the areas war-time defences in detail.
We hope to establish a group of committed volunteers to whom we can offer follow-up training sessions, workshops and survey days on different types of sites along the Lincolnshire coast.
