Oxford Archaeology researchers to lead ambitious interdisciplinary study of archaeological wildlife June 2022
Week 1 Update Our excavation has started in the north-west corner of the site, with supervised machine removal of the soil.
Weeks 2 and 3 Update Over the past two weeks, the team have been digging prehistoric pits and Roman ditches.
Weeks 4 and 5 Update The team are now supervising the mechanical removal of topsoil across the excavation area in Barrack Field.
Week 2 - The First Finds Week 2 saw the continuation of the site strip, the excavation of our first archaeological feature and the recovery of our first artefact.
Weeks 7 and 8 Update We have revealed the whole site and we're starting to investigate the remains of the Napoleonic camp.
Week 3 - Steady Progress Despite a rather wet start to the week, the team continue to make good progress on site.
Weeks 4 and 5 - It's all making sense. Despite the weather taking a turn for the cold and wet, progress on site has been fantastic.
Week 10 Update This week the team spent most of their time finding archaeology which we weren’t expecting to find!
