I started in dendrochronology on a PhD project funded by the then Science and Engineering Research Council on what was called a CASE studentship in collaboration with the Ancient Monuments Laboratory of the Department of the Environment - which is now part of English Heritage. For many years now I have carried out contract work for them - and produced a number of reports - these changing names over the years from Ancient Monuments Laboratory Reports, to Centre for Archaeology Reports, and currently EH Research Department Reports. These are available from English Heritage (Historic England from April 2015) for a small charge, or specific questions about a particular site may be addressed directly to me.
