A very generous donation

Weedon Historical Society have kindly made a donation of £500 toward the cost of our new home. A huge thanks to Weedon for this generous donation. Every donation we receive will help make this project a resounding success and something to be proud of.

One thing that we could do with fairly urgently is sponsorship or volunteer help to produce a CLASP sign at the farm entrance together with a building sign. All offers or suggestions gratefully received:

CLASP Archaeological Strategy – February 2019

The Trustees have agreed that CLASP required a clear definition of its future archaeological strategy, taken in conjunction with external strategies and objectives, both regional and national, to provide the justification for our future archaeological work thereby giving us a clear but long term goal and not just an open ended path. It is:

CLASP’s future research, whilst focussed on defining holistically, both archaeologically and historically, the landscape of west Northamptonshire between AD43 and 410, will, as appropriate seek to identify the continuity of peoples and all aspects of their presence between BC (BCE) 2000 and AD (CE) 1066
