We are very pleased to announce our new Winter Lecture Series for 2026 - 2027. Starting on Wednesday 16th September and running through to our AGM on Wednesday 21st April, this year's series includes a huge range of lectures on many aspects of archaeology. Lectures are held in Lecture Room 1 of the Wilberforce Building. University of Hull. The start time is 7.30pm apart from the AGM which begins at 7.00 pm. Lectures are free to members and £3 for non-members. They will also be streamed online for members, with a link being sent out for each in due course. Our first lecture is on 16th Sept and will feature Dr Jim Leary and Dr Elaine Jamieson talking about another season of the University of York excavations at Skipsea This is a welcome return by Jim (Senior Lecturer in Archaeology) and Elaine (Associate Lecturer in Landscape Archaeology) who have for the last few years hosted ERAS visits to their dig. Results are proving to be ever more interesting with evidence of activity around the famous castle site extending backwards into prehistory with important new insights into the early medieval period.  

The Field Studies session scheduled for 6th May will be replaced by field trip to Skipsea excavations on 26th May, meaning there will be no Field Studies session on 6th May.   Please remember to email Matt at [email protected] to secure a place on the field trip.
