Welcome to the

Middle Nene Archaeological Group

About Us

In October 1970 the Nene Valley Archaeological Research Committee suggested the formation of a local group led by John Hadman and Steve Upex to organise excavations, field walking and other events. John and Steve had already supervised some excavations, including Elton and Fotheringhay, but the first indoor meeting of the Middle Nene Archaeological Group took place in February 1971. Over fifty years later the Group is still flourishing.

Our events and lectures are open to members of the public for a small fee.
