Great 1st camp of 2024! . Thanks HighPeakScouting and Gradbachscoutcamp for a wonderful Wallaboree

What a weekend! . We managed to put together a pretty decent structure for our 'slightly octagonal' Round House. As well as making some Iron Age inspired rings and torcs. . Thanks to all the Scouts that took part in some experimental archaeology. . Derbyshire Scouts

100+ Scouts, a Tudor hall, plenty of awesome artefacts, and maybe even ITV . A huge thank you to everyone involved! . More updates to come . Derbyshire Scouts LeicestershireScouts

Burial chamber..? Secret tunnel..? Dungeon of Doom..? . The youngsters carried out a resistivity survey alongside St Thomas’ Church on the Willesley Camp site and found exciting evidence of an underground tunnel or chamber. . Derbyshire Scouts LeicestershireScouts

We found a very well preserved foundation of the front entrance of Willesley Hall, potentially including part of the door. The brickwork and sandstone used in construction was incredibly well preserved, despite demolition and robbing out. . Derbyshire Scouts LeicestershireScouts

Thank you to all our visitors and supporters that help us to spread the word and facilitate doing big projects like our Willesley Dig. . Derbyshire Scouts LeicestershireScouts . Derbyshire High Sheriff The Lord-Lieutenant of Derbyshire Leics Lieutenancy Ashby Town Council
