Loughborough talk on 4000 Years of Pottery in Leicestershire
Posted on 08/07/2008
What did our ancestors cook their stews in and drink their wine from? Where did they get their pottery from? What does a Roman cup feel like? Find out the answers to these questions and more when National Archaeology Week comes to Charnwood Museum in Loughborough.
The audience will have the opportunity to handle real pots used by the Romans and Tudors when Leicestershire Museums’ Curator of Archaeology gives a talk at the Charnwood Museum on Monday 14th July.
This free event takes place at 2.00 pm and lasts for an hour. Places are limited, and can be pre-booked by ringing the museum on 01509 233754. The Museum itself houses an exhibition of Leicestershire’s Archaeology, with the emphasis on the Charnwood area. It is open from 10.00 to 4.30 Mondays to Saturdays, and 2.00 to 5.00 on Sundays.
Charnwood Museum is run as a partnership between Leicestershire County Council and Charnwood Borough Council.
