One of the main aims of the Association is to support archaeological or associated research, particularly into Roman Britain. Some of the projects we have supported financially in the last two years include:

The Frilford Roman Temple Project, University of Oxford. Post Excavation research at the Gresham Street Wells, Museum of London. General support to the Vindolanda Project. Conservation of artefacts from the South Farm Villa, DART Excavation Team, Swindon. The Vine Street Excavations, Leicester University Archaeology Services. Friends of Jewry Wall Museum, Leicester. These grants vary between £350 and £1000, depending upon circumstances. All are funded from the Graham Webster Research Fund, established in memory of our late President.

If you, or your organisation, would like to learn more about our funding principles, please contact our Director, Bryn Walters, on 01793 534008 or e-mail us on ara.enquiry@hotmail.com.
