Christ Kirk on the Green has been a focal point for Leslie folk for centuries. It was the site of the church, markets and fairs, homes during the war, the gallows for hangings ... the list is endless.
This is a hugely exciting project for the whole community. Who knows what will be unearthed, possibly even the remains of the 10th century wooden kirk thought to have stood on this very spot.
Working alongside a team of archeaologists, we are looking for enthusiastic local volunteers to get involved. We are currently finalising dates, but we will be looking for volunteers each day to help with the excavation.
We have many other projects in the pipeline, all of which offer an opportunity for the community to be hands on in helping to discover & conserve Leslie's rich heritage.
We are grateful for any donation, small or large, as these enable is to fulfil these exciting projects.
