We are inviting all members to a special Christmas celebration at our usual venue in Reading.
The afternoon will commence with a light buffet with wine to be followed by 2 talks by BAS members:
Mosaics of Tunisia by Tim Lloyd
How Glass Evolved from Roman to Modern by Peter Clifford
The afternoon will conclude with coffee and more chance to chat.
Note that, due to the sociable nature of the event, we will NOT be broadcasting on Zoom. Please try and join us in person.

The agenda for this meeting is:
Writing the Blounts Court project report
This report is unusual insofar as we have records in the National Archive that relate to the development of Blounts Court during the medieval period
so when we find a sherd of medieval pottery we can actually name the people who bought it and used it and read their letters.
Writing the Blounts Court pottery report
This is a presentation and discussion about how best to write a pottery report which will interest us.
Please note that the meeting fee is £3 per head
