Revealing
Cheshire's Past
Revealing Cheshire's
Past is a Heritage Lottery Funded project. Its aim is to increase
access to the County Historic Environment Record (CHER).
The CHER is the
database of all the known archaeological sites and finds in
Cheshire, Halton and Warrington. It contains over 7000 records
from prehistory to more recent times.
The
project has created new ways for you to access this information.
A database
allows you to find out more about individual archaeological
sites and finds in the county. You can consult the database
here or in libraries
in Cheshire
Our community
exhibition can be seen at libraries and community venues
around the county. It provides an overview of the archaeology
of Cheshire.
A traveling
exhibition, showing some of the archaeological objects
discovered in Cheshire, was shown at museums across the county
from January 2006.
A series of fact
sheets will help you find out about Cheshire's archaeology
in more detail.
'Cheshire
Rising' is the Revealing Cheshire's Past poem, written
by John Lindley, Cheshire Poet Laureate, to launch the
project in October 2004
