Bury Archaeological Group

Bury Archaeological Group Members pursue their individual interests, but come together for fieldwork, excavations and conferences. Welcome to Bury Archaeological Group.

Our membership is relatively small and informally based. Members pursue their individual interests, but come together for fieldwork, excavations and conferences etc. Aims of the Group include:
•To create a better understanding of the origin and history of communities in Bury District, to bring a clearer perspective of their position and influence in society as a whole.
•To convey results of archae

ological excavation or local history studies to the general public, by publication and presentation of artifacts.
•To encourage awareness in community heritage, together with means of its investigation by giving guidance to those wishing to participate. The Group is a member of the Council for British Archaeology, also the Federation of Archaeological Societies of Greater Manchester. We co-operate with the Greater Manchester Archaeological Unit and appropriate departments of local authority including Bury Museum, where finds from our excavations in Bury are usually kept.
