Dr Andy M. Jones from Cornwall Archaeological Unit will speak about the excavation at Whitehorse Hill, Dartmoor.

The excavations revealed an intact burial deposit which was associated with a range of artefacts. Due to the exceptional preservation, the peat mound was rich with environmental material which helped build a picture of environmental conditions over time around the cist.

The lecture will begin at 5 p.m.
