A call for volunteers for a new archaeological dig at Katong Park (see map), which is seeking evidence of Tanjong Katong Fort. Some early pictures (here and here) of the park found on the National Archives of Singapore PICAS database.

This dig follows on from the earlier dig at St. Andrew's Cathedral. A (PDF format) report of that earlier dig can be found on NUS Asian Research Institute web-site.
