This latest newsletter includes notes from the 2023 AGM Chairman’s address and a very in-depth view from the CLASP Archaeological Director. Well worth a read!

CLASP brings local archaeology enthusiasts together to investigate their local past.

Our members, all volunteers, are technically led by our professionally qualified Archaeological Director, himself a volunteer. Members are encouraged and enabled to learn skills for themselves, both formally and ‘in the field’, to become confident and self-sufficient in all aspects of archaeological investigation.

CLASP also provides talks and lectures as part of its commitment to encouraging local communities to ‘own’ their archaeological heritage.

Join us! (It’s only £10 per annum!)
