Welcome to Liss Archaeology
COMMUNITY ARCHAEOLOGY GROUP
FOR EAST HAMPSHIRE
-
We have about 130 volunteer members, who carry out archaeological investigations and excavations under professional supervision across East Hampshire and West Sussex.
-
Our group was originally formed in 2004 to investigate a Romano-British site in West Liss, where an aisled building with bath house and courtyard were discovered.
-
In 2009 we moved on to explore a new and exciting site near Colemore, with ongoing research, geophysics surveys and excavation carried out by enthusiastic volunteers.
-
Since 2016 we have also been exploring a Romano-British settlement near Petersfield and have a number of other ongoing projects, including the Petersfield Big Dig.
WHAT’S HAPPENING
Butser Hill
Thanks to Carl Raven and a team of volunteer helpers we recently completed our survey report for geophysics scans we carried out for Queen Elizabeth Country Park at Butser. They asked for our help as they were not permitted to undertake amenity improvements with a grant from the National Grid unless they could demonstrate to Historic England that they would not be disturbing buried archaeology on the site which is 'Scheduled' and protected.
Annual General Meeting
Members are asked to note that our AGM will take place on Tuesday 25th March 2025 at the Triangle Centre in Liss. Please aim to arrive by about 7.15pm to allow for a prompt start at 7.30pm.
If you have any proposals for inclusion in the agenda or are interested in standing for any of the Committee positions, please email us as soon as possible.
