Since September 2013!

Through a love of history, a burning desire not to work inside and just a little bit of luck I guess.

What is the best thing about your job?
The community aspects of it. I’ve been lucky enough to work on a few of our recent community projects and I love the buzz you get from engaging with the public and talking about archaeology. We have a pretty cool job and it’s nice to show it off!

The digestive. It’s a good honest biscuit that isn’t afraid of a little bit of tea.
