THE BIG DIG at London Museum Docklands

20 July - 31 August

This summer, take part in an archaeological adventure where little hands make big discoveries at London Museum Docklands.

Step into the shoes of an archaeologist and help piece together stories of London’s history through playful excavation.
Dig down through the centuries in your own trench –based on a real archaeological site in London – and unearth real objects made and used centuries ago.

What will you reveal? A Tudor townhouse? Roman ruins? Or even artefacts from a time before London ever existed at all?

All equipment is provided – including your hard hat, high-vis vest, trowel, activity sheets and brushes.

Complete the dig and earn a special sticker to mark your archaeological adventure!
