As the Bedford Borough aerial investigation and mapping project nears its conclusion and final report, the Skylarkeology team begins a new chapter; a new aerial mapping project focused on East Cambridgeshire commences, along with our new aerial archaeology specialist, Maggi Noke.

Both a sad and happy day for Skylarkeology as Amanda takes her leave as business partner. Thirteen years of air photo interpretation, over three of which spent as the smarter half of Skylarkeology, officially ends today. Good luck Mand. Thanks for being such a star.

New and exciting discoveries this year from Historic England, including a probable Cursus monument. It is one of two in a loop of the River Great Ouse and they are both part of a wider Neolithic/Bronze Age funerary landscape.

Neolithic monuments, Iron Age settlements and a Roman farm have all been made visible in crop marks.
