Excavation starts tomorrow!!!

Excitement builds as the team prepares for Day 1. Yet rust never sleeps (no we won’t use Neil Young references this year) and the drought gave us an opportunity to get a good look at the linen mill that was at the western edge of the field. John McCullen noticed how the drought had brought up the mill’s foundations. Drone-expert Anthony Murphy was called in and he very generously captured the moment on the 30th of May.
