East Riding Archaeological Society

So we have sadly come to the end of a very varied and interesting lecture season. The AGM began with a minutes silence to reflect on the loss of Dr Terry Manby who has contributed so much to East Yorkshire's archaeological record and will be sadly missed. The AGM was followed by Dr Peter Halkon's presentation on 40 Years of Research on the Prehistoric and Roman Landscapes of the Foulness Valley - which we now confirm is now actually 45 years of research! Thank you to Peter for stepping in at very short notice, and for arranging our fantastic lecture programme. More to come from September! You can follow our progress again at Petuaria ReVisited later in the summer and we will of course, still be running our Field Studies Programme throughout the summer. Our next Field Studies will see Matt Walker running a flint workshop on Wednesday 7 May at 7.30 pm at our usual venue in St Nicholas Church Parish Rooms on Holmechurch Lane, Beverley.

Join us on our rescheduled field studies! The team have planned a lovely night out exploring the Beverley Town Trail. We will be following in the footsteps of medieval merchants, learning about the industrial wealth of the town and its wonderful ecclesiastical histor. We will meet at 7.15 pm on Wednesday 17 July outside the Angel Pub on Toll Gavel where the trail starts. We look forward to seeing you all there!
