We're delighted to reveal our sparkling new gift shop, which was refurbished at the end of March 2017! With generous funds from the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development Europe, the shop has been brightened up with new units, lights and shelves, as well as a sink for the coffee machine and a new display area.We welcome thousands of visitors and schoolchildren every year, many of whom visit the shop to buy souvenirs, browse our bookshelves for historical titles, or simply enjoy a cup of coffee overlooking the farm. We have struggled with poor lighting and lack of storage, but with the new refit we are now able to properly welcome visitors and use gift shop profits to raise more money for our archaeological projects.The shop also includes a dedicated freezer for selling our rare breed meat, as well as an interpretation area to display artefacts and information on prehistory.The site is now open seven days a week for our summer season, and it's the perfect time to enjoy spring in the rolling hills of the South Downs National Park. This Easter we have a riddle trail for families to take part in, as well as our flock of newborn lambs who spend their days frolicking on the hill. See you soon!
With thanks to the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development Europe.
