SUMMARY:Southampton’s ancient monuments revisited
DESCRIPTION:Follow in the footsteps of the founding members of the Hampshire Field Club and Archaeological Society to see how Southampton’s medieval remains have survived numerous threats over the last 140 years and are now benefitting from major capital investment. Includes a visit to a long stretch of the north town wall with three towers made fully accessible for the first time since the 1540s. \nThis guided tour will last approximately 2 hours. It will highlight the Field Club’s involvement in saving some of the finest monuments and how they are being conserved for future generations – from the Bargate and the Town Walls to the Norman houses and the medieval wine vaults. \nJo Bailey\, Southampton City Council’s Monuments and Memorials Officer\, will lead the tour. Prior to being with the City Council Jo was an archaeologist in Winchester before moving into the museums sector in Hampshire and the south east.  She studied Archaeology at the University of Southampton and worked on excavations in other parts of the UK and Europe. She is also a former President of the Field Club. \nWe will meet on the south side of the Bargate\, under the sign saying “Meeting Point” at 9:50am for the tour to start promptly at 10am. NB The tour is limited to 25 people so early booking is recommended. \nThe visit will cost £5 for members and £8 for non-members. Places can be booked at:  www.ticketsource.co.uk/hantsfieldclubhistoricbuildings. \nIf you wish to pay by cheque\, please email Karen Wardley.

SUMMARY:Excavation Visit & Tour Buckler’s Hard Excavations
DESCRIPTION:The Buckler’s Hard Shipyard Trust has been excavating at the historic riverside site on the Beaulieu River in the New Forest to uncover the historical slipways where 55 wooden warships for the Royal Navy including Nelson’s favourite\, HMS Agamemnon\, were built. \nBuckler’s Hard village is famous as the private shipyard in use from around 1740 until 1971 when the boatyard operations moved upstream\, leaving the historic site preserved and undisturbed. \nA team from Southampton University\, with the national park archaeologists\, and Maritime Archaeology Trust will be displaying the special techniques used for this type of site. \nThe Field Club has been offered an exclusive tour of the excavations by the chair of the Trust\, Mary Montagu-Scott. After the tour\, attendees can visit the small museum (for a small charge) or take advantage of the eating\, drinking and walking facilities at Buckler’s Hard. A lovely summer’s day out in the National Park. \nThis exclusive tour is\, as usual\, free to Field Club members\, but we would be most grateful if you could contribute a donation at the dig itself. Proceeds go to the Trust to fund further excavations and research. Note that new New Forest parking charges apply at the site. \nBook your place(s) at https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/hantsfieldclubarchaeology.
