The Community Archaeologists at Nottingham County Council are organising a volunteer dig at Rufford from 1st to the 12th July.
The first week (1st-5th July) will be run as a field school and will examine the foundations of an ornamental gateway at the north end of the Broad Drive, near to the mill. It is intended that the week will be "ideal for people who want to get a proper introduction to professional excavation techniques."
The second week (8th-12th July) will see the excavation of a disused water channel and studying the former garden features in an attempt to understand their layout.
For further information or to book a place email (community.archaeology@nottscc.gov.uk) or phone on 0115 969 6525.
