Lake District theatre to host archaeology conference

History lovers staying in Lake District holiday cottages this autumn will need to book soon if they wish to attend the upcoming archaeology conference at the Theatre by the Lake in Keswick.

According to Eleanor Kingston, archaeology and heritage adviser at Lake District National Park, these events are traditional favourites and the next installment on November 14th will likely be no different.

"Our past conferences have been very popular and we are expecting a capacity audience this year," she remarked. "I would advise anyone interested to book early."

A variety of presentations from experts will cover topics such as axe working, minerals, metals and how the Romans who were garrisoned in the area supplied themselves with food, while visitors can also get to know the theatre that is proving a big attraction in the region.

Earlier this month, the Guardian revealed that 135,000 people have witness performances at the venue so far in 2009.
