Mercian Archaeological Services CIC will be having their launch event at Kings Clipstone, Nottinghamshire, on the 23rd February between 10am and 4pm.
There will be opportunities to see a test pit being dug, to look at the finds from the excavations and to discover the preliminary results of this exciting project. Free tours of King John’s Palace - the Royal Hunting lodge that formed the heart of Medieval Sherwood Forest - will be taking place throughout the day. There will also be displays of pictures, maps and other documents from previous research and excavations at the palace site. Mercian staff will be on hand to talk about the project, the company and anything else you may wish to discuss with them!

They are passionate about the heritage of the region and about connecting people to their heritage through archaeological fieldwork, training and talks.

Good luck Andy, hopefully I'll be able to make it (if my car survives its MOT!)
