It's Day 5, and with more Venturers on site work has begun in Trench 1 and in the Reredorter Trench. Competition winners from the Young Archaeologist Club have joined us on the dig, and the infamous bouncy castle has appeared on site...

The excavations at Leiston Abbey were part of a four-year project to unearth the untold story of Suffolk’s finest medieval ruins. Over the years, more than 500 crowdfunders have helped us carry out in-depth excavations, and start piecing together the story of what happened here 700 years ago.
