Introduction
Following exploratory work in 1995 full-scale excavations were undertaken in 1996 by MoLAS at the site of the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden, Greater London. The resulting digital archive is being preserved and made easily accessible through the Archaeology Data Service as part of the Digital Archiving Pilot Project: Excavation Records (DAPPER) project funded by English Heritage.
The on-line archive is currently incomplete but contains Geographical Information System (GIS) files, interpretive groupings and data files consisting of context, artefact and ecofact attribute sets. It is hoped that the rest of the archive will become available following full publication of the site.
Details on the associated Oxbow monograph can be found on the MoLA website: Middle Saxon London: Excavations at the Royal Opera House 1989-99 by Gordon Malcolm and David Bowsher.
