Heneb - The Trust for Welsh Archaeology
- ️Fri Jan 24 2025
In 2024, Heneb united Wales’ four regional archaeological trusts—Clwyd-Powys, Dyfed, Glamorgan-Gwent, and Gwynedd—into a single organisation dedicated to uncovering and preserving Wales’ rich archaeological heritage.
An independent charity with over 50 years of combined expertise, Heneb connects communities to the past by safeguarding historic sites, managing the Historic Environment Record (HER), and leading innovative research.
From archaeological excavations to community outreach, Heneb ensures Wales’ heritage is accessible, understood, and valued—now and for generations to come.
