Head over to Fosse Meadows for a fascinating free Archaeology Finds Morning and discover the incredible history hidden beneath our feet.
This event is part of the 2026 Festival of Archaeology, organised by the Council for British Archaeology. Taking place across the UK from 18 July to 2 August, this year's festival theme is "Archaeology and Nature", celebrating the connections between our historic and natural landscapes.
