Join our resident archaeologist, Richard Knox, for a journey through more than 50,000 years of early Britain told through an array of archaeological artefacts. Find out how these objects were made and used and by whom. Richard will bring along many wonderful finds from Leicestershire and the Melton area, as well as images of the more rare or delicate items from our past. There will be the chance to handle some real objects as well as good quality replicas.
Richard Knox, a resident of Rotherby, is the manager at the Bosworth Battlefield Heritage Centre and an archaeologist. In his spare time Richard re-enacts various periods of history, including the 13th and 15th centuries.
All are welcome; the price for non members is £2.00 (pay on door).
