A busy day at the diggings! Holy Trinity primary school came to watch Marlow Archaeological Society digging trenches in Church Meadow. "I bet it's a moat" said one kid "That's the best suggestion we've had all week" said Anne the site manager....
 
They've found  stuff dating back through Victorian times, Tudor, medieval, Norman, Bronze Age, Iron Age and  even Stone Age flints nearly 5000 years old.
