Day 1
Monk Bretton Priory was the site for an Archaeological dig. The site used to belong to the Talbots, who had connections with Mary Queen of Scots, it is believed that a medieval manor house stood on the sight. The archaelogists surveyed the site and found some interesting sites to investigate. It was a fantastic opportunity for the children and we made three visits to the site, to see the dig progress. One site was for the university students, post-docs and volunteers. The other site was for the community, but at critical stages we were not allowed to dig.
