A small but determined team of staff and volunteers braved the rain and wind earlier this week to break ground on the Dairy Days dig at Floshes Hill near Hardraw.

Day 1 removing the turf
We hope to discover the relationships between two stackstands and possibly an adjacent field boundary as well as finding dating evidence.

Day 2 trowelling the top soil
The dig will continue until the end of next week and there will be an opportunity for the public to visit the site – get in contact if you are interested in a tour.
