Site assessment and recording

The consultancy undertakes a wide range of preliminary works and strongly believes that research can inform development strategies, increase consultee confidence and reduce project risk.

• Desktop review of existing records
• Documentary and cartographic research
• Air photographic research
• Field evaluation
• Survey of sites and historic buildings
• Evaluation excavation
• Site watching briefs

We are happy to undertake small-scale projects, including church archaeology investigations, however, we prefer to commission and manage larger-scale archaeological excavation in order increase efficiency and eliminate conflicts of interest that can arise between consultancy and contracting.
