Film night (and BTW its our AGM…)

March 15, 2018

This Friday sees the WAS film night.  Members of UCL’s Filming Antiquity project will be showing two silent movies from the 1950s of excavations at Verulamium.  The first shows the lifting and conservation of a mosaic, and the second the excavation and story of the timber buildings in Insula XIV.  These films have recently been digitised and this is the first time they have been shown publicly for many years.

The AGM will precede the films and should be quite short.

    Very interesting to see the excavating and conservation of Verulamium from the 1950’s. The other film that was mentioned was probably this one – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHAaMmL9uU0 a Mortimer Wheeler special!
