        In the early medieval period, Yeavering was the site of seasonal gatherings by the Northumbrian royal court. Now, new archaeological investigations are teasing out further details of the site. CA spoke to Dr Chris Ferguson and Sarah Semple to learn more. the-past.com/feature/ad-gef…

        This is trench supervisor Cait of Durham University who held the beautiful medieval golden primrose in the palm of her hand in my post yesterday - and student Mark who discovered this beautiful object as he dug through the kitchen rubbish from the Bishop’s Palace @theaucklandproject

        Day 12 - the race is on in the final days to finish excavation! As the site gets deeper by the minute, we see a staple of #archaeology fashion being worn by the Durham Archaeology students - hard hats.
