THE Beacon Museum in Whitehaven is hosting a Festival of Archaeology event. 

The event will run for two hours and is being organised by Lancashire and Cumbria PAS. 

It will take place on Tuesday, July 23, between 12pm and 2pm and is a drop-in session with no need to book. 

In a post on social media, The Beacon wrote: "Have you found anything historic in your garden, on the beach or in the park? Would you like to find out more?

"Bring it along to the Beacon Portal on July 23 and meet our local finds liaison officer Alex Whitlock."
