With 6 places available on each workshop.

The cost per person is £15 per workshop

John Lord has 50 years’ experience as a flint knapper and was awarded the BEM for services to the profession in 2017. In a one-hour workshop, participants will learn how to make flakes or blades that can then be worked into projectile points or knives. At the end of the workshop, participants should have produced a point that can be compared to genuine artefacts from the past as ancient standards were variable.

Minimum age for participants is 16 years.
