I'll be sharing some truly exciting news from the world of archaeology. Recent discoveries on the river have revealed evidence that not only enriches our understanding of the city’s past, but actually challenges long‑held assumptions about Roman activity in the area. These finds open up a fresh chapter in Sunderland’s story — one that’s far more complex, surprising, and important than we ever imagined.

If you’re interested in archaeology, local history, or simply enjoy learning something new about the region, I’d love you to come along.

⏰ 1:00 pm &amp; 2:30pm
