LAHS members are welcome to attend this lecture which is being held jointly by The Prehistoric Society and The Leicestershire Fieldworkers. 

In 2017 a remarkable Iron Age chariot burial was found during the final stages of an excavation at Pocklington, East Yorkshire, along with an impressive 164 burials and 74 square barrows. Further excavation revealed two more chariot burials – all very different – and some stunning finds. This is a talk not to be missed!
