Some sneaky #BTS shots from the setup of #SuffArch25

A team of students in yellow hi vis vests stand in an open trench holding tools. The sky is cloudy and they are surrounded by fields.

Another team of students and staff stand in a trench in Suffolk. They are surrounded by crops.

A small group of students and staff stand in a huge open trench in the middle of a field. The sky is blue!
