Saturday March 19th - visit to St Brides

I have arranged for us to visit the Archaeological Excavation at St Bride's Haven next Saturday (19th March). The Dyfed Archaeological Trust are undertaking an archaeologial excavation here from March 14th following on from a small investigation at the site in 2009. Then they found evidence of a stone building , likely to have been associated with the fishing or lime-burning industries. They also found a ditch, and several early medieval burials. The early mediaeval cemetery is eroding from the cliffs in the bay. This year Caw, PCNP and PLANED are funding a four week excavation.
Duncal Schlee of Dyfed Archaeology will be showing us around the site and explaining how and why they are excavating and what they have discovered.
Interested? If so we meet at St Bride's Chapel at 2pm but please let me know if you are coming so that I have an idea of numbers. And please share lifts as space is limited.
Phone Linda on 01646 622428.
