Uncover the secrets below the surface of Oakham Castle!

Under the professional supervision of the University of Leicester Archaeology Service, up to 10 volunteers per day will have the opportunity to take part in a real archaeological excavation in the centre of Oakham.

Volunteers will be taking part in all aspects of the archaeological excavation. This will require strenuous physical activity equivalent to a full day of gardening, therefore a reasonable standard of mobility and fitness is necessary.

All training and equipment will be provided. No previous experience necessary.
