Abstract: In 1990, John Evans described the sequence of events that had brought him to Skomer. Similar events brought the authors back to Skomer to map evidence missed or omitted by previous archaeologists. In the thirty years since Evans’s work we have the benefit of new technology, although this only offers an incomplete picture. For example, in the western part of North Valley, Evans observed a field wall in the dried-out North Pond in 1989, and hut circles as dark soil marks (Evans 1990, 251), yet none of these features has been picked up by the LiDAR survey. Skomer still has archaeological secrets to be revealed.
