About Ancient Technology Centre

The Ancient Technology Centre has welcomed school visits for over 25 years and in that time thousands of children have passed through their gates and enjoyed memorable experiences of the past.  About 80% of all their building and maintenance projects are completed by visiting groups and this allows them to gain a greater understanding of the challenges our ancestors faced day to day.
