Tarbert Castle Trust is getting down and dirty as it hosts a weekend archaeological dig. On Saturday June 30 and Sunday July 1, between 10am-4pm, a team will be investigating ground patterns for any evidence of the occupation of the area outside the castle walls.
Robert McPhail, trust secretary and treasurer, said: ‘Ideally, we need help proba-for the full day or a least a morning or afternoon session during the two days. You will, of course, be welcome any time for a look and everyone will be informed of outcomes. This is a good opportunity to learn some skills which will help with next year’s big dig in May and June.’ For more information contact Robert McPhail at sonamarg@btinternet.com
