About

Join us for a talk on the Tormain Woods project, where ongoing research has uncovered evidence spanning from the Mesolithic to the Early Medieval period.

Join us for a talk on the Tormain Woods project, where ongoing research has uncovered evidence spanning from the Mesolithic to the Early Medieval period. The project is a community archaeology initiative investigating the prehistoric landscape of Tormain Hill, a Ratho heritage site in danger of being lost, both physically and in memory.
We are using new technological methods to recheck the known archaeology, some of which has not been updated since the 19th century, and to look for new evidence of unknown sites.
In August, we will be conducting a study. We will be open for public visitation every day we are on site, and would welcome volunteers who want to try their hand at some Time Team, on the weekends.Find out more from the project itself, and volunteer to help out, on their Facebook page [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61560769992628]
