Volunteer Opportunities at St Constantine’s Chapel – 7th & 8th May

May 7 @ 10:00 - May 8 @ 15:00

The MI team are calling for volunteers to support conservation repairs at the Medieval St Constantine’s Chapel!

 

Meeting Point: Trevose Golf & Country Club, Constantine Bay, Padstow, PL28 8JB

Timings: 10:00 – 15:00

 

Tasks for the days will include:

  • Digging by hand (shovels and wheelbarrows) and creating a barrow run to efficiently move sandy soil material around the site alongside Old Light Building Conservation and Cornwall Archaeological Unit.
  • Possible sieving or sorting through large rocks/boulders as necessary.
  • Bagging and tagging finds as they are recovered.
  • Infilling and compacting hollows.
  • Additional stone salvage as necessary, recovering stone from two stone dumps within the scheduled area.

 

What to bring

Please bring plenty of water to keep yourselves hydrated as well as sun cream & hats to protect yourself from the sun. Please also bring sturdy walking boots and thick gloves as there are sharp blackthorns at the monument site.

 

If you haven’t already, please book your space below. There will be limited numbers for this event!
