This interesting project involved assisting with the design for an exciting new gallery and activity room which shows the incredible survival story of the collection. Funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund the ‘Unlocking Vindolanda’s Wooden Underworld’ exhibition involved the build of an extension containing special display cases to best preserve significant pieces of the wooden Roman artefacts.
