The Boxford History Project is hosting a talk by Gill Campbell from Historic England entitled
The Boxford timber: its conservation and what it tells us about Mesolithic life.
This follows on from the exciting find in Boxford of worked bog oak dated to the Mesolithic period, so well before Stonehenge and is the earliest piece of worked timber so far found in the UK. We knew Boxford was an ancient settlement but this find has taken our breath away.
The talk is being held in Boxford Church on 16th October at 7.15pm. Parking will be in the field opposite the The Mill and will be signed.
Visitors are welcome but as we don’t charge for our events, we gratefully appreciate individual donations to help defray our costs.
