Much more rain here and we’ll need to call some of our underwater archaeologists friends from @NautArchSoc when they’re in Durham for their conference in Nov - which’ll be worth checking it out. If you’re an @ArchandArch member there’s a reduced rate https://t.co/QiJbL7oqoL

#FestadelRedentore2024 🎆
The Festa del Redentore is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated events in Venice. As we wait to cross the votive bridge and witness the spectacular pyrotechnics show reflected in the water, let's breathe some of its magical atmosphere.

Two days left @ArcDurham at @aucklandproject excavations. So many of you have come to see us and it’s great to have you there to cheer us on, come rain or shine. We are settled into final recording and some final thorny questions about cuts and sequences.

The next edition of our peer-reviewed journal "Medieval Archaeology" is due out next month! To whet your appetite, we're going to be taking a sneak peak at some of the articles so keep an eye on our socials to see what's coming up.
Day 8 - halfway! While we’ve been busy revealing walls and some lovely sections (see photos, a two day difference!), @JohnCastling has somehow found the time to write the latest blog post!

Auckland Castle excavations Week 2. Recording, drawing and digging sections out with some excellent undergrads. A little cold, a little rain and some shine. Last year it was blistering heat. Can’t win! @ArcDurham@durham_uni
Day 7 - on the North Terrace we had launched an investigation to try to pick-up the wall which runs through the main trench. The investigative team has officially reached natural with no wall in sight, but recording is underway!
The walls of Sir Arthur Haselrigge’s dream mansion? If so, built 1650 and lasted only a dozen years before the returning Bishop of Durham tore it apart and recycled the stone. End of Day 1 here. @ArcDurham@durham_uni
The turf comes off at Auckland Castle in prep for the Durham University training excavation which begins next Monday 3 June 2024. Come take a look. Should be exciting. Pic by Jamie Armstrong. @ArcDurham@durham_uni@aucklandproject@MeganOlshefski
🐝 Have you explored our new Wilderness Garden?
Tucked away behind Auckland Castle, this tranquil garden is a haven for wildlife with amazing views over the Deer Park and beyond. The perfect place to sit back, relax and admire the views...
