East Wear Bay Digital Museum
Digital heritage platform preserving 12,000 years of Folkestone history with 5,000+ digitised artefacts
The Challenge
The East Wear Bay site near Folkestone contains a Roman villa and 12,000 years of archaeological history, but it's being lost to coastal erosion. The project needed a digital platform to preserve discoveries, coordinate 500+ volunteers, and manage field school registrations from participants across 5 countries.
Our Solution
Created a comprehensive digital museum with 3D artefact viewers, an interactive timeline spanning 12,000 years, volunteer management tools, and field school registration. Powered by Sanity CMS for easy content management by the archaeological team.
