Overview
The digital archive
The digital archive currently consists of the following resources:
- Hosfield, R.T. and Chambers, J.C. 2004: The Archaeological Potential of Secondary Contexts. English Heritage Project Report (Project No. 3361). English Heritage Archive Report: London.
- Toms, P.S., Hosfield, R.T., Chambers, J.C., Green, P.C. and Marshall, P. 2005: Optical dating of the Broom Palaeolithic sites, Devon and Dorset. Centre for Archaeology Report 16/2005. English Heritage: London.
The main project report is presented here as one composite PDF volume comprising all 10 Chapters and incorporating all figures, tables and other illustrations. The lists of figures and tables are included at the front of the volume for ease of use.
Non-digital Archive and Publications
The project archive also contains approximately 3980 raster digital image files linked to an artefact database. This resource is not currently held by the ADS, any queries regarding this additional output should be directed to the depositor.
