What’s buried under Barnard Castle? Archaeologists from DigVentures have been digging in the castle’s Outer Ward, which once held a medieval church, farm buildings, and a gate-tower controlling access to and from the main town.
What did they discover? Delve into the past with medieval artefacts, hands-on activities, and more.
Visitors can also book ‘Handling Ancient Artefacts’ – a free, special event where archaeologists will show you how to handle and identify ancient artefacts. Book here
