It was a bit of a scorcher yesterday at #Arthur'sStone, #Herefordshire so we had a well deserved early finish. Some really interesting archaeology and finds showing up though and the next two weeks are going to be monumental 😎☀️

We're back at #Arthur'sStone, #Herefordshire this summer as part of the #UniversityOfManchester Beneath Hay Bluff project, led by @julianthomas2.bsky.social.

This year we've got some very exciting trenches planned on the monument. Stay tuned for updates 😎☀️

In a break from my usual archaeology - it's great to see a news article revealing the discoveries at Redhouse Lane swallet.

I've played a very small and very recent part in exploring and surveying what will likely turn into a substantial system in the Wye Valley.
