FARI Archaeology currently comprises some 30 members who come from a whole range of backgrounds. Some have previously worked in archaeology whilst others are currently pursuing a formal qualification in the subject. But by far the largest number are those who simply have an interest in the subject and are looking for opportunities both to learn more and to actively participate in archaeological and historical investigations. Whilst concentrating our efforts in the Newark area, FARI has also undertaken investigations further a field in Nottinghamshire and adjacent counties and we draw members from as far away as Derbyshire whilst two of our members are currently studying archaeology at St Andrews in Scotland and London as well as at Nottingham University. With links to both the professional archaeological community and to other amateur groups we can provide a whole range of different activities for anyone interested in finding out more about the archaeological heritage of their local area. At the more glamorous end of the subject, we have also carried out work with Time Team and with the Two Men in a Trench TV programmes. We provide training in many different aspects of archaeology including recording and surveying and can provide plenty of ‘hands on’ experience both in non invasive and excavation techniques.
