Current Aerial Investigation Projects
Here you can find an overview of research projects currently being carried out by our aerial investigation team.
South-West Suffolk Claylands
The project will investigate a landscape where aerial photography has traditionally been viewed as unproductive, due to the low incidence of cropmark formation on clay soils, but where recent aerial reconnaissance has been changing this perception.
Huntingdonshire
The aerial survey will map and record new and known sites in an area south of Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, where large-scale strategic housing allocation has been proposed, along with significant transport infrastructure upgrades and environmental threats.
Yorkshire Wolds
In the context of the proposed National Landscape designation, this project is re-evaluating part of the Yorkshire Wolds, originally mapped from aerial photographs in the late 1980s, using modern methods, sources and archaeological scope.
Westmorland
This well-preserved archaeological landscape with later prehistoric, Romano-British, medieval and post medieval remains is facing new challenges due to changes in farming practice, the national response to mitigating climate change and visitor recreation.
North-West Norfolk
The project seeks to enhance knowledge and understanding of the historic environment in an area that has seen relatively little archaeological investigation and for which there is currently a low density of recorded sites.
