ARE you interested in the stories, artefacts and heritage that can be found hidden from sight?
The Lough Erne Landscape Partnership (LELP), supported by funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund are, looking for volunteers to be part of the Enniskillen Dig – an archaeological project offering volunteers training in the skills of excavation and the opportunity to be part of an exciting community excavation to take place later this year.
Part of the Legacy of Landscape project, volunteers are invited to participate in an online training course beginning this month and delivered by the team for the Centre for Archaeology, Queens University Belfast.
This online training course will provide you with the skills and knowledge to participate in the LELP Enniskillen community dig, to be held in autumn.
Open to everyone, the course will explore the archaeological process of everything that happens on an excavation, including why archaeologists dig where they do, how they uncover stories from the past, and how they record what they find.
To register for this project, email lelp.volunteers@rspb.org.uk.
Further information about the Legacy of Landscape project can be found on the LELP website at www.lelp.org.uk, or by contacting Heritage Project Manager Hazel Long, at hazel.long@rspb.org.uk.
