Village to give up its secrets

THE buried past of a Fenland village is about to be unearthed with the help of an archaeologist from TV's Time Team programme.

Carenza Lewis will lead the big dig at Wisbech St Mary next week when at least 10 sites throughout the village will be excavated over two days.

Owners of land throughout the oldest part of the village have been asked to give permission for excavations to take place. The test pits of a square metre will also go down about one metre.
