Abstract
Priorities for industrial archaeology in the 1990s
Marilyn Palmer
4 - 5
For an area that includes evidence from the material record, historical sources and even modern folk memory, and whose subsequent problems reflect that complexity, the major considerations for the immediate future must be: the organising of nationally funded strategies to cope with the effects of privatisation on structures and archives; the establishment of typological studies of classes of building, particularly where adoptive re-use may occur; and an increased emphasis on the study of entire industrial landscapes which are threatened with redevelopment.
Monmouth: amateurs to the rescue
Reg Jackson
Philomena Jackson
An account of the role and success of Monmouth Archaeological Society in raising the profile of archaeology in their area. There is particular reference to 22-24 Monnow Street, a site which has revealed the first pre-Flavian remains in the town, the earliest Roman remains in Wales.
Icklingham bronzes update
Judith Plouviez
The Crown Prosecution Service has decided that it is not in the public interest to proceed with prosecutions in this case. The landowner, John Browning, is thus proceeding with a private prosecution. Britain still refuses to ratify the UNESCO Convention on illicit trade in cultural property, claiming that existing legal structures offer sufficient protection. Meanwhile, the bronzes remain in a New York art gallery.
Professional training in archaeology: what do the professionals think and do?
John Wood
Results of a survey circulated in 1989 reporting staffing structures, training strategies and induction procedures in archaeological organisations. Despite an awareness of the need for training it remains a neglected area, with the advent of contract archaeology further threatening quality assurance. There is scope for increasing inexpensive measures such as induction training and reciprocal training networks between organisations. However, this does not remove the need for established training budgets as part of overall costing practice.
Trees and ancient monuments
Ron Shoesmith
An application to restock woodlands covering the area of Ethelbert's Camp, otherwise known as Backbury Hill, was turned down by the Secretary of State for the Environment after a Public Local Inquiry, indicating that the damaging effects of the forestry cycle are an important factor when considering Scheduled Monument Consent. It is hoped that a compromise between the owner and English Heritage, possibly taking the form of a management agreement, could eventually provide the way forward.
