Covering the counties of Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Norfolk and Suffolk CBA East is an educational charity and, as part of the Council for British Archaeology’s network of regional groups, we aim to involve people in archaeology and to promote the care and appreciation of the historic environment for the benefit of present and future generations. This is funded by our members’ subscriptions and is fulfilled at a local level by:
- publishing a regular newsletter,
- encouraging participation in events and training opportunities,
- liaising with other archaeological groups and societies in the region,
- holding regular committee meetings throughout the year, and
- holding an annual AGM. (Please see ‘Events 2023’ for latest news on this.)
We aim to make this website a source of information on:
- the activities of the group,
- how and where to get involved in archaeology, and
- resources for archaeology in the region.
We meet 3 – 4 times a year and are keen to have committee members representing all areas of our region which covers Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Norfolk and Suffolk.
We make small grants to support a wide range of archaeological projects and are particularly interested in supporting projects with an educational objective, and in helping groups and individuals to publish their work. Please click on ‘Grants’ tab above for more details.
