One last thanks to everyone involved, staff, students, volunteers, visitors, and everyone in the local community-these excavations could not succeed without all of you. Only 11 more months until we can be back digging in Herefordshire once again!

The sun has set on another season of excavation at #ArthursStone #Herefordshire, and it has been a truly wonderful and memorable month...🧵@DigitalSelf4 @UoMCAHAE @UoMNews @UoMSALC @HistoricEngland @EnglishHeritage @Archaeology_ws @CUHistArchRel

Final day of excavations at #ArthursStone, with the glorious passage entrance, and in the other field, an amazing prehistoric quarry! It's been a truly epic four weeks. @HistoricEngland @EnglishHeritage @UoMCAHAE @UoMNews

@PeterReavill @UoMNews @UoMCAHAE @EnglishHeritage @HistoricEngland Lovely to meet you too, thanks for coming and spending some time with the team!

Yesterday I had the pleasure of planning the wall and passage entrance of #ArthursStone. It's not every day you get to work with such spectacular #Neolithic #Archaeology @UoMNews @UoMCAHAE @EnglishHeritage @HistoricEngland

[Nick Overton @ArchaeOverton]

@ArchaeoRowe @R1100GSBlueNose @UoMNews @UoMCAHAE @EnglishHeritage @HistoricEngland It's glorious isn't it?

[Nick Overton @ArchaeOverton]

@PVBuk @UoMNews @UoMCAHAE @EnglishHeritage @HistoricEngland Sorry! It's Arthur's Stone, early Neolithic long Cairn in Herefordshire. The plan is of the western outer wall and entrance.

[UoMCAHAE @UoMCAHAE]

@ArchaeOverton interviewed by the @BBCNews on very exciting discoveries being made at Arthur's Stone, involving staff and students from the Department and @CUHistArchRel. https://t.co/8yUyv5vn9B

@GarryLavin @UoMNews @UoMCAHAE Absolutely! This year is even more exciting than last year-we are here until the 23rd, so come and see us again!

[Nick Overton @ArchaeOverton]

End of week three at #ArthursStone, and the inclement weather brings some magical moments! #Neolithic #Archaeology @UoMNews @UoMCAHAE

[Dr Tom Elliot @t_elliot]

An important milestone today here at #ArthursStone, #Herefordshire: a 4 hour meeting with my inspector colleagues from @HistoricEngland to decide whether we can investigate the entrance of the passageway to reveal potentially priceless in-situ #Neolithic #Archaeology
