Welcome to the supplementary web-pages for Pontefract & District Archaeology & History Society, informally known as PontArc.

The Society was formed in 1957 and our members have carried out and supported many impressive fieldwork projects over the years since then.

In the pages here we aim to give a little more detail on some of those projects. Click on the buttons below...
