'Saxons in Gamlingay' by Sarah Inskip (University of Cambridge)
Thursday 5th July 2018 at 7:30pm
Eco Hub, Stocks Lane, Gamlingay, Sandy SG19 3JR
20 years ago an archaeological dig in Gamlingay uncovered a Saxon community with a farmstead, hall and cemetery containing 118 graves. Now, as part of a wider study, a new resarch project by Sarah Inskip at the University of Cambridge is exploring the health and life of these residents. Following a presentation by Sarah last year, she will be updating us about the results of her analysis of the human remains and plans to have a permanent memorial for the Saxon community of Gamlingay.
All welcome.
