Open day with Vikings

Sunday 21st July 10.30-4

Avalon Marshes Centre BA6 9TT

A FREE open day for people to look around the Saxon longhall, the Roman villa dining-room and the Viking boat at the Avalon Archaeology Park. A group of Vikings will be inhabiting the longhall to enlighten people in the world of the pagan Scandinavians. Various craft activities (and occasional combat) will be going on and films about local archaeology will be shown in the Bulleid and Gray cinema hut.

Now also the first opportunity to see the Walrus, a full size waterline replica of a Viking trading boat from Denmark (Skuldelev 3).
