Graeme Young "Bamburgh Reasearch Project - Bamburgh Bowl Hole Cemetary: Life and Death in an Early Medieval Palace."

Friday 22nd October 2021, 20:00-21:30
Graeme Young (Project Director) is a graduate of Newcastle University and began excavating in 1988. He has excavated sites across the UK and worked for a period in Africa. A founder member of the BRP, Graeme has directed excavations on Lindisfarne and in Newcastle and Durham prior to leading the archaeological research at Bamburgh Castle.

Graeme's particular interest is the Anglo-Saxon and Medieval archaeology of Northumberland, but he has been known to stoop to prehistory on occasion.

The Bamburgh Research Project is an independent, non-profit archaeological project investigating Bamburgh Castle in  Northumberland, one of the most important archaeological sites currently under excavation in northern England. We have also investigated a prehistoric site just a few miles from the castle, the Bradford Kaims. Since 1996 we have been working to uncover the history of this fascinating castle and its environs, from prehistory to the present day. We aim, through our work, to bring the past to life for everyone.
