Rendlesham Post-Excavation 2022

Following the second season of Rendlesham Revealed excavations in summer 2022, a dedicated team of 89 volunteers continued the post-excavation work on the excavated material at the Cotswold Archaeology warehouse in Needham Market, over the past 6 months from October 2022 to March 2023. All the material is now processed, entered on the database and packed up ready to send to the relevant specialists for analysis and reporting.
