Carsphairn Heritage Initiative, in conjunction with the Glenkens Story are delighted to announce the launch of a new project investigating the ancient sites of Stroanfreggan fort and the nearby Smittons Bridge kerbed cairn!

The ‘Can You Dig It’ community archaeology project – part of the Galloway Glens Scheme – has worked with hundreds of volunteers over the last 4 years to inspire and understand the archaeology and history of the Ken/Dee valley in Galloway – showcasing archaeological processes and approaches. From digs to field walks, from self-led covid friendly study work to the phenomenally popular series of online events, the project has been wide ranging.
