Welcome
Welcome to the newly formed East Regional Group of the Council for British Archaeology.
The former Mid Anglia and East Anglia Groups have merged following the meeting on 16th May 2011. We now cover the counties of Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Norfolk and Suffolk. An increased membership will provide more opportunities to put on events and involve members of the Group.
We are an educational charity and as as part of the CBA’s network of regional groups we aim to involve people in archaeology and to promote the care and appreciation of the historic environment for the benefit of present and future generations. This is funded by our members’ subscriptions and is fulfilled at a local level by:
• publishing an annual Newsletter;
• encouraging participation in events and training opportunities;
• liaising with other archaeological groups and societies in the region;
• holding regular committee meetings throughout the year; and
• holding an annual AGM.
It is hoped that this website will become a source of information on:
• the activities of the group;
• how and where to get involved in archaeology in your region; and
• provide a resource for archaeology in the region.
If you would like to join our mailing list to receive updates and the Newsletter please email Andrew Francis
