What's New under the Uplands Archaeology Initiative

This year (2009-10) reconnaissance survey projects are being grant-aided under the Uplands Archaeology Initiative in the following areas:

Bwlch y Pentre (Snowdonia) (12kmsq) by Oxford Archaeology North

Moel y Llyn (Powys) (30) by ArchaeoPhysica

Carneddau - Llandeilo Hill (Powys) (14) by Hayman and Horton

Glamorgab uplands: Hirwaun - Rhondda (16) by Hayman & Horton

Planning for next year’s (2010-11) programme is already under way. It has been brought forward so that air photo mapping of selected areas will be in place for the start of survey in April 2010 and to ensure completion of surveys and reporting by March 2011.

Readers of these pages who would like to participate in the field programme should contact David Leighton at david.leighton@rcahmw.gov.uk. by the end of July 2009.
