- Booking essential
Thank you for your interest in booking a ticket to participate in this years’ Time Team project at Sutton Hoo. Due to high levels of interest, all tickets are now sold out. The excavation will be available to be viewed by visitors to the site and project updates will be posted online. Please do visit the National Trust Sutton Hoo website for further details.
The project will be investigating some of the areas of interest discovered during recent geophysical surveys of Garden Field by Time Team. Activities will include cleaning and cataloguing finds. No previous finds processing experience is required but always welcome.
To provide some continuity and commitment to the project, we are asking all participants to book two days of finds processing within the four weeks of the project. There is no charge to sign up to participate.
The finds processing day will be 10am - 5pm with a lunchbreak at approximately 1pm and with morning and afternoon tea breaks. Please meet on site ready for 9.45am.
A volunteer briefing pack with further information will be supplied to each participant at least two weeks before the excavation.
