Honoured to be presenting a short paper at the @findsorguk PAS conference @YorkMuseumTrust today on Roman research in Gloucestershire helping to highlight the contribution of the PAS to archaeological research. Great work with @Avon_GlosPAS
Another successful season excavating the medieval manor in the Cotswolds. More evidence of a fortified manor altered over many years with at least one part of it destroyed by fire. Thanks to all diggers this year. Good work!! Can’t wait for season 3 next year.
We wanted some good dating for our Medieval manor! This nice little hammered silver coin helped us out today. Possibly one of the Henry’s? Was it dropped by a Le Poer, a Gozenboided or even Panchio de Controne? just some of the owners of the manor. If only it could speak to us!!
Archaeologists use LIDAR to strip away the trees and vegetation to see what lies beneath. Below are the aerial and LIDAR images for Chedworth. Come and visit us this #festivalofarchaeology for an immersive archaeological experience #archaeology@NatTrustArch@archaeologyuk
An archival pic of excavations at Chedworth. It took us a while to figure out where this photo was taken. Turns out it was the entrance to the grand dining room #mosaicmonday#Archaeology#Mosaic#excavations

A path and open gutter between phases or just one part of our medieval manor? It butts against the massive 1.5m wide Eastern wall. Large walls still heading off to the North so best we check them out next week !!!
Although this Friday's mosaic making workshop is sold out, you can still book for the next one happening on Wednesday, 20 September. Follow this link for details...

Going back a few years... excavations on the North Range. That magic feeling as the turf comed up and you get the first glimpse of a mosaic #mosaicmonday
