So very sad to hear this news - Lisa was always the friendliest face at any enviro arch conference and a fountain of archaeobotanical knowledge. She will be very much missed.
It is with heavy hearts that we share the news that our dear friend, Dr Lisa Lodwick, passed away yesterday. She has left a legacy of innovative, collaborative work that stretches far beyond Oxford. Our deepest sympathies to her family and husband Jo. She will be sorely missed.
You can catch Rhi talking about our Missing Mile project with @CanalsConnected on BBC Radio Gloucestershire here (fast forward to around 3.18):

@TomWGarner@_changing_tides @GGAT Looks interesting - size could possibly suggest some kind of fish trap construction or similar? Only thing I would say is be cautious of date as the stakes could have been pushed into the deposit at a much later date.
Saw this brilliantly simple public engagement device from @EdenRiversTrust on our way down from Helvellyn today. Immediately thought could be interesting approach to monitoring archaeology at risk - particularly to coastal erosion etc? One for @CoastArch @CITiZAN1 @GGATArfordir?
Our colleague Siân has been in Mold this morning delivering a talk to the Flintshire @u3a_UK about some of our more recent Roman excavations in Wales. The talk was very well attended and prompted some great discussion afterwards. Many thanks to Flintshire u3a for the invitation!
Kicking off 2022 with the exciting news that our colleague Siân’s new book is now available to buy from @BAR_Publishing! You can get your very own copy here: https://t.co/ExK15sn6WX
This week we are celebrating staff progression:
We are very pleased to announce that Daniel Moore has been promoted to Senior Supervisor and Rhiannon Philp has been promoted to Post-Excavation Manager.
Congratulations both - we look forward to working with you in your new roles
Very proud of our colleague Siân Thomas, who just returned final proofs for her new book “On the Edge of Empire” based on her PhD research. Will be released as part of the @BAR_Publishing Archaeology of Roman Britain series very soon! We'll update as soon as it becomes available.
Back on Freshwater West this weekend and the peat is still exposed, though to a lesser extent. Hoofprints still clearly visible and some potential human, though all very shallow/eroded. Ginny the Springador for scale..
Footprint hunting at Kenfig with @SueGreaney and @Estalwin today - likely to be those reported in Bennet et al 2010 (https://t.co/OvhrgPXPrH) very eroded (sorry not great photos), but looked to belong to children including possibly toddler aged. Hoofprints also present!
