    A joint talk will be held by Histon and Impington Village Society and Histon and Impington Archaeology Group (HIAG) on Monday 27th February at 7.30 p.m. at Histon Methodist Church and via Zoom. 

    We are delighted to invite Alison Dickens of Granta Heritage who will give a talk entitled ‘Beneath the Choir Stalls of King’s College, Cambridge’. Alison will talk about the amazing finds discovered during a programme of treatment of the timber of the choir stalls in 2001 when over fifty sacks of debris and dust were removed. After careful hand sieving 544 items were recovered. Alison, an archaeologist with over 30 years’ experience, examines the significance of these objects and the light they shine on people who have used the chapel.
