This August visitors will be asked to put their engineering skills to the test with our Medieval Machines.

Mini replicas will be available for you to study and you can select your building materials of lolly sticks, elastic bands and spoons (!). Then it’s down to you to create your very own medieval machines.

Once your masterpiece is ready, it’s time to select your fluffy ammunition, take aim and see how far you can fire. We encourage families to battle it out for nothing more than glory!

To celebrate the CBA Festival of Archaeology, our Dig It! activity starts today and runs until Sunday 25th July.

Learn the basics of archaeology without getting your hands dirty by trying out the techniques used during the Greyfriars dig, which uncovered the remains of King Richard III.

There is buried treasure in our mini archaeology dig pits - you've just got to find it!

Dig It! takes place outside so is a weather permitting activity.
