We are back after three weeks break over Christmas and the New Year.The morning started off very wet and cold but as the day progressed the rain stopped and even the sun put in a brief appearance.We can now boast having an "International Staff" at the Mellor Mill dig. We have been joined by Lara Ramperez (on the right in the photograph).  Lara is a qualified Archaeologist from Spain.Currently living in Manchester and keen to be involved in our project. Today Lara and Rachel can be seen working on excavating the foundations of the second Lancashire Boiler.
