The SPMA Research Grants deadline is fast approaching!
You have until Tuesday, 1 September 2026, to apply for funding from our Research Grants fund.
We award small research grants twice per year. The aim is to support research projects and publications on the post-Medieval archaeology of Britain, Europe and the wider world from about 1500 CE to the present day.
Each research grant proposal is subject to a maximum of £2,000. The total fund available in any single application round will be £2,000. We may divide the available fund between several applications.
Find information about how to apply and download the application form from our Research Grants page. Read about the most recent previous awards and Research Grant holders to see the variety of projects that the Society for Post-Medieval Archaeology has supported. You can also consult our Newsletter for Research Grant reports and read research articles in our Journal, Post-Medieval Archaeology.
The next Research Grant deadline will be 1 March 2027.
