Margary Research Grants

The Sussex Archaeological Society offers up to £6,000 annually to individuals and groups to assist with the costs of historical and archaeological research with a Sussex connection. Project awards are not normally more than £1,500 each, however, in exceptional circumstances more may be awarded. Applications are not dependent on a proven record of research and preference will be given to applicants who do not qualify for other research grants. Grants for publication are not generally given but applications towards the costs of obtaining specialist reports or producing professional standard drawings will be considered. In addition grants may cover the purchase of equipment and photocopies or microfilms or archival material.

Applications are considered annually each February. Application forms, together with conditions of grants, can be obtained from the Society website or by email from Luke Barber, Research Officer, Barbican House, 169 High Street, Lewes, East Sussex BN7 1YE.
