HADAS
Hendon and District Archaeological
Society
Sunny Hill Park,
Hendon NW4
For a period of two weeks, Hendon and District
Archaeological Society (HADAS) will be undertaking a survey and
excavation in Sunny Hill Park, Hendon.
A feature of the park is the remains
of a complex second world war building of unknown purpose, but thought to be a
bomb shelter or ARP (Air Raid Precautions) bunker.
This will be a joint
project with University College, London (UCL), and will be part of the Council
for British Archaeology's "Festival of Archaeology" for 2010.
Members of
the public are welcome to come and observe the dig, and HADAS would also like
to hear from anyone with historical information or memories of the facility
from when it was in use.
Sunny Hill Park was opened by the council in 1922.
Sited on an
open hillside boasting fantastic views, the park is popular with walkers.
The well used play area and sporting facilities provide recreational
interest while the popular cafe provides an excellent focal point for the park.
