Online Archaeological Resources

The Earth Trust has a Dig Timeline with updates and photos which you may like to follow: https://digventures.com/earth-trust/timeline

The Council for British Archaeology (CBA) team in York has used the current lull in its work programme to put together an Archaeology Resources Hub. There's an eclectic mixture of stuff on there, so you may well find something to take your interest while stuck indoors over the next few weeks/months. There's also a list on there of archaeological sites across the UK that are usually open to the public and which have launched survival appeals to help them get through the current crisis. There's a very real danger that some might be forced to close permanently without the money from gate receipts that they usually rely upon.

Nene Valley Archaeological Trust has arranged a series of online lectures over the next few months relating to the Bronze Age - see https://www.nenevalleyarchaeology.co.uk/2021-conference-bronze-age-britain

Other AAAHS Websites

The Abingdon Buildings & People website now has almost 150 articles on Abingdon's historic streets and buildings, its families and people. The project is ongoing, and would welcome additional members.

The Ock Street Heritage Project is no longer active, but much of its output is available online.
