As part of the preparation works for the Rosegarth Square Public Realm area, located on the Brownfield site at the edge of the town’s conservation area, we are pleased to announce that Rocket Environmental Services has been appointed to undertake archaeological work. This includes providing expert advice, on-line and on-site services to allow the community to investigate a window into the site.

 

The specialist team from Rocket Environmental Services will begin with general surveys before commencing a two-week community archaeological dig. This dig aims to uncover more about the rich history of Rosegarth Square and will take place from Saturday 19 October to Saturday 2 November.

 

We are inviting volunteers to join us on-site and be part of this exciting exploration. To participate, please register your interest by signing up at https://lnkd.in/eSKFi-iw

 

Natasha, Operations Director from Rocket Environmental Services, said: "We are excited to be able to design and undertake this project and we hope that it will encourage people to find out more about both history of Rosegarth Square and the plans for its future".

 

In addition, we are calling on local residents to share any knowledge or interesting facts about the site’s history and its historical significance. We are also inviting local schools to participate in outreach activities and workshops, which will be designed to align with the school curriculum.

 

Cllr Anne Dorrian, Leader of Boston Borough Council, said: “The council is thrilled to embark on this archaeological journey at Rosegarth Square. This project not only aims to uncover the rich history of our town but also brings our community together in a meaningful way. By involving local residents and schools, we are keen to foster a deeper connection to our heritage and providing a unique educational opportunity. I encourage everyone to participate and share their knowledge, as we work together to reveal the fascinating stories hidden beneath our feet.”
