support the project...

In recent years, regional interest in the Durham River Wear Assemblage has been steadily growing. A series of talks and public lectures, to a diverse range of groups and institutions, together with local media interest has helped raise awareness of the objects, their importance to our local heritage and their potential to provide us with a new understanding of Durham's late- and post-medieval past.

Although we have several small finds experts standing by, their expertise comes at a cost, in addition, illustrating and photographing hundreds of objects will require additional funding. However, this is where we believe you can help us. Each of the four boxes below relate to an important aspect of our research project - analysis, research, illustrating and photography. Depending on which of the four areas you may be interested in simply click on the box to find out additional information about that particular aspect of the project and how your donation can help. You can make a donation as an individual or as a representative of a group/institution; the size of your donation could be sufficient to fund a single object illustration or photograph, or large enough to support the research of an entire group of artefacts - the choice is completely up you!

Simply click on one of the boxes below - based on which area of our project you would like to support. By helping us this way, you really will be helping us re-write the history of not just Durham but also the wider North-East region.
