How To Record Historic Buildings on the Gwent Levels


Learn how to record historic buildings in the Gwent Levels!

Have you ever wondered about the history of your local pub or Post Office? Or been curious about that one peculiar building? Or that unique house you walked past?

If you're fascinated by historic buildings, and want to learn more about some of the unique old buildings on the Gwent Levels, this Dig Ventures workshop is for you.

This fantastic two-part workshop will show you how to look at buildings like an archaeologist!

By the end, you'll know:

  • What a building survey is and how to do one

  • Why archaeologists do building surveys

  • How to find additional information about historic buildings

Held over two half-day sessions, we'll teach you everything you need to know to do a basic archaeological building survey. You can choose to join us for Day 1, Day 2, or both. You're welcome to join just for one day if you just want a taste, but if you want the full experience then it's best to book both days.
