CSI (Conservation Science Investigations): Sittingbourne is an investigative conservation lab in the Forum shopping centre in Sittingbourne, Kent. It is a unique, community-led public heritage conservation project. It allows public access to the conservation techniques involved in treating objects from archaeological digs. The project was founded as a local initiative by Sittingbourne-based conservator, Dana Goodburn-Brown, and initially ran from 2009-14. In 2022, we reopened in partnership with Sittingbourne Heritage Museum, combined with the support of local professionals, history enthusiasts and the wider community.
