The Magic of LiDAR


 

The speaker at our March meeting was Nigel Westwood, who gave a fascinating insight into the development and use of LiDAR in archaeology. Images of Roman camps and roads in South Staffordshire were used to illustrate the value of this tool for those looking into the historical landscape.

Time Team & Dig Village

 



Videos from Time Team and Dig Village were shown at our recent meeting. For long-standing members this must have brought back very fond memories of our time spent with Channel 4's 'Time Team'. Eagle-eyed members will no doubt spot a few familiar faces in this still taken from the closing scene of 'A Village Affair', the episode about Bitterley, Shropshire (Series 19 episode 2).
