Today, members of North Worcestershire Archaeology Group, ably led by Rod Sproat, assembled in the churchyard in order to excavate the old mort stone prior to its possible relocation fairly soon. A most interesting dig then took place resulting in some fascinating discoveries of a quite unexpected nature. Needless to say a couple of new recruits were enlisted to the group.
