Incredible finds from Lincoln Eastern Bypass dig go on show


 
Experts say it may well be the largest site of its kind ever found in Lincolnshire and one of the biggest nationally.

People can now find out more about the discoveries in a display at The Collection which runs until August.

It is a pre-cursor to this year's Archaeology Week, which will take place from July 24 to 29 and will include children's games and quizzes and a talk from Ruben Lopez, site director from Network Archaeology, who is overseeing the Lincoln Eastern Bypass investigation... Lincolnshire Live
