Join Norton Priory's Archaeology and Collections Director Lynn Smith on a tour of the 2025 archaeological excavations.
From 18th August to 12th September, we will once again be ‘Digging for Norton’ as we continue to excavate the servants wing of the manor house and the possible location of the medieval infirmary. Our archaeologists will be joined by a small team of volunteers.
Special tours of the dig site will be held on selected Fridays through August, and limited spaces are available.
