The Conference
Thisautumn conference, held once again with the active support of SCC Heritage Conservation Team, continues the Research Framework process. Following the 2001 Conference Archaeology in Surrey in the 21st century and the subsequent publication of Aspects of Archaeology and History in Surrey in 2004, the Surrey Research Framework was launched in 2006.Since then,special interest groups of the Society and others have used it as a basis for the development of further research. It has always been intended that the Framework should continue to evolve.The conference will examine ways in which that is happening and invite further involvement in the process.
This year’s conference takes a look at local history and the contribution it makes to understanding settlement development, especially in association with archaeological evidence
Tickets £10.00 in advance or £12 on the day
Refreshments Morning and afternoon tea and coffee will be available in the hall.
Please make your own arrangements for lunch
