Get hands-on with ÄûÃʵ¼°¹'s past with the help of the ÄûÃʵ¼°¹ County Archaeological Unit loan boxes. We have a number of boxes available:
- Prehistoric (Stone, Bronze and Iron Age)
- Roman
- Medieval and Tudor
- Medieval and Tudor (Woking Palace)
- First World War (Witley Camp)
- First and Second World War
- MiniDigs - Be an archaeologist and excavate real finds
Each box is packed with real artefacts excavated from archaeological sites around ÄûÃʵ¼°¹, and replica items to show you what they would have originally looked like. They also each come with a Learning Pack containing information about the artefacts, a summary of the period, case studies of ÄûÃʵ¼°¹ sites, and suggested activities. These boxes are perfect for schools and community groups.
Each box costs £30 to hire for two weeks and must be collected and returned to the ÄûÃʵ¼°¹ History Centre in Woking.
If you would like more information, or to book a loan box, please contact the Community Archaeologist on email: education.scau@surreycc.gov.uk or telephone: 01483 518737
