RESCHEDULED FOR 2021
A Lost Kingdom? The Middle Thames Region and the Making of Early Historic England
This temporary exhibition follows the discovery by Maidenhead Search Society metal detectorists in early 2018, of the site of a high status Anglo-Saxon burial, not far from Maidenhead.
Drawing inspiration from new archaeological finds, this exhibition evaluates the role of the Middle Thames region in the wider political, social and economic dynamics of southern England over the 5th to 8th centuries A.D.
A one-day conference at the Desborough Theatre in Maidenhead will be held on the 30th May which coincides with the exhibition. For more information and to book a ticket for the conference, go to Eventbrite and search for ‘A Lost Kingdom? The Middle Thames Region and the Making of Early Historic England’.
