The project was delivered by archaeologist from University of Glasgow, Archaeology Scotland, and many other institutions, as student field training but also with participation of local volunteers.

Fantastic creative work by the Kelsae Archaeology Project team.
A youth led project with lots of lovely intergenerational interactions.
They researched and recorded historic buildings in Kelso, recreated them in clay, shared their findings with local care home residents, the local community and at the national Youth Work Conference.
Young people reported improved confidence and wellbeing.
