Derbyshire Archaeology Day
Derbyshire Archaeology Day supported by the Peak District National Park, Chesterfield Borough Council and Derbyshire County Council.
A great opportunity to find out about new conservation and archaeological discoveries over the last year or so, in Derbyshire and the wider Peak District.
There will also be some free hands-on activities in the Winding Wheel Ballroom that are suitable for the whole family, as part of the event being organised by the Derbyshire Archaeology Day group. Find out more…
