Visit Blaise Castle House Museum and Estate to participate in Bristol’s Brilliant Archaeology, an archaeology celebration co-ordinated by Bristol Culture Team.


Medieval people, just like today, wanted to make their mark and actually left it all over St John on the Wall's Church: Heraldry on the walls, ceiling memorials even graffiti. Discover more about these signs, symbols and marks and be inspired to create your own using modern and traditional materials. 

Drop-in throughout the day, this activity is for 3 years and upwards.  N.B. Children must be accompanied by an adult.

Other activities on the day will include:

  • Mini excavations
  • Crafts
