Mining, Milling and Machinery, Dan Waterfall (CFA Archaeology).
This talk will cover three archaeological excavations which CFA Archaeology have carried out in the Leeds area in recent years: the remains of 19th/20th century coal mine infrastructure at Nursery Pit on the city’s eastern fringe, a site located at Sovereign Street, behind Leeds railway station which identified part of the tail race of a water mill, and an excavation which uncovered part of the Midland Junction Foundry on Water Lane.
Meetings will be live wherever possible but in a hybrid format - so if you cannot, or would prefer not to, join live, we will still be holding the meetings online as well - details will follow nearer the date.
The live venue is expected to be Swarthmore College, 2-7 Woodhouse Square, Woodhouse, Leeds, LS3 1AD.
