FREE Iron Age Thatching, Wattle & Daubing at RSPB Arne
Ever wondered how our ancient ancestors survived on the heath? And what they lived in?
Join us and the Ancient Technology Centre to have a go at thatching, creating a wattle wall and daubing it with clay, to create a traditional roundhouse and structure. All using historical techniques, based on archaeological remains found nearby. Set in the beautiful setting of Coombe Fields.
The activities are FREE, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund’s Green Recovery Project, but please do book a ticket for your chosen session, as places are limited.
Upon arrival, please show your ticket/e-ticket at the Welcome Area and ask for directions to the Iron Age Roundhouse. See less
