Documentation from the 2013-2019 Project: 'The Archaeology of Bidford-on-Avon: The Anglo-Saxon Cemetery'

The Archaeology of Bidford-on-Avon project, 2013-2019, directed by Sue Hirst and Tania Dickinson, was established to complete publication of multi-period rescue excavations carried out between 1971 and 1994 in Bidford-on-Avon, Warwickshire. Although the standards of excavation, publication and subsequent curation of the 1920s finds, and the relatively poor state of preservation of the finds made since 1971, placed limitations on what the research could achieve, it has resulted in a thorough and up-to-date reappraisal of the cemetery and its implications for the early medieval archaeology of the Avon valley. Documentation created to assist this research is contained in this collection.
