Copped Hall Trust Archaeological Project 2018

Copped Hall Trust Archaeological Project (CHTAP) - 2018

CHTAP will be running its usual series of taster weekends and field schools at Copped Hall, which is an important archaeological site with a complex sequence of building phases. Its recorded history starts in the 12th century. They will take place on the site of the earlier mansion, ‘Old’ Copped Hall, which stood at the northern end of the gardens and was demolished in 1748. The site is mainly Tudor, but previous archaeological finds have dated from the prehistoric all the way to modern times.

The three taster weekends in July will be open to all, including complete beginners, and are designed to teach the absolute basics of archaeology and excavation. In
August afive-day field school will be held for those who have already learnt the basics of excavation and recording and wish to develop their skills further. The aim of the schools will be to advance the archaeology of old Copped Hall.
