Summer Lectures: Roman Archaeology – It’s rubbish!

John Buglass has been working in archaeology since he first volunteered on the Mary Rose Project in 1982. Since then he has undertaken a variety of roles from excavator to project director. John recently worked on archaeological investigations at Norton Community Primary School, which uncovered a wealth of Roman finds.

In his lecture, John will share some of the highlights of the excavation, giving fascinating glimpses of life in Roman Norton, and the range of activities which took place on this site: including a period as a Roman rubbish dump!
