This project follows on from a Historic England supported project entitled Exeter Urban Archaeology 1970-1990. Securing and Enhancing the Archive for Public Access and Research (Phases 1 and 2). The project will be delivered through a partnership of the Universities of Exeter and Reading, Cotswold Archaeology, Exeter City Council, the Royal Albert Memorial Museum. The Arts and Humanities Research Council and Historic England, will provide funding, with Exeter City Council and the Royal Albert Memorial Museum providing help in kind. This partnership will pilot a new way of working: rather than grant aiding a single organisation to carry out a programme of work, the 'Exeter - A Place in Time' Project will provide a model for more holistic partnership working, involving the higher education, national Government, local government and the commercial archaeology sectors.

The London Protected Wreck Site: Excavation of Material at Risk is a marine fieldwork project commissioned by English Heritage. The fieldwork elements of the project will be undertaken during summer 2014 and summer 2015.In 2014 the project will focus upon the recovery of loose finds and the evaluation of the depositional sequence and wreck remains within the part of the wreck known as Site 2, believed to be the bows of the vessel. In 2015 work will be undertaken to join the trenches together into an area excavation.

Archaeological work generates large quantities of documentary, digital and material archives, but what becomes of these Marches Archaeology, an archaeological unit based in Clun, Shropshire, had a reputation for undertaking high quality fieldwork and depositing equally high quality archives. Unfortunately, after they ceased trading in 2006, many of their archives remained undeposited, mostly from sites within Wales and western England. At the request of their former director, most of these were collected by Historic England in August 2010, following which Cotswold Archaeology http://cotswoldarchaeology.co.uk/ were appointed to process the archives and deposit them with approved museums, a process that was completed in 2013. Non-project material was recycled or, in the case of personal effects (which included military medals and a train set!), returned to the son of the former director of Marches Archaeology. Part of the Marches Archaeology archive in the care of Staffordshire County Council was not collected by Historic England in 2010. These archives, from some 14 different projects undertaken in Staffordshire, will shortly be collected by Cotswold Archaeology staff, and prepared for deposition to modern standards at their offices in Kemble, Gloucestershire. The work will be undertaken by a team of enthusiastic local volunteers, under the guidance of Cotswold Archaeology staff who, over the course of several similar projects, have gained wide experience of dealing with orphaned archives. Following processing, the archives will be deposited with the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery, Stoke-on-Trent http://www.stokemuseums.org.uk/visit/pmag/, where they will be available for future research, a process that is due for completion in May 2018.

This project aims to publish the archaeological work undertaken by Kirsty Rodwell at Gloucester Blackfriars between 1987 and 2000, and to prepare and deposit some archival material from those investigations with English Heritage. Gloucester Blackfriars is one of the most complete Dominican friaries to survive in England, and has been subject of numerous archaeological investigations and surveys since the property came into guardianship in 1960, including the various works by Kirsty Rodwell. In March 2002, Kirsty Rodwell was commissioned by English Heritage to prepare a publication text of this work, and of the excavations carried out by Phil Greatorex in 1995. This was completed in draft form in 2004, but after this date Kirsty Rodwell became ill and the publication programme stalled. The project became live again in 2010 when Kirsty Rodwells publication draft and archive was made available and Cotswold Archaeology, who at the time was undertaking further archaeological work at Gloucester Blackfriars, took delivery of the publication draft and archive, including some archival material from the earlier investigations. Review of the draft text and archive has identified the tasks required to achieve the publication of the draft report, in particular the updating of the draft publication illustrations to modern standards, and deposition of the archive. Kirsty Rodwells work at Gloucester Blackfriars will be published as a stand-alone report in Cotswold Archaeologys monograph series, and the archive will be deposited with English Heritage at their Fort Brockhurst stores in Hampshire.

This project will investigate the evidence for maritime and maritime-related activities around selected areas of the English coastline in the c 400 years of Roman occupation. Reports of Roman finds and of potential Roman shipwrecks regularly appear in publications but there has been little or no analysis to establish the veracity of these reports and little synthesis of the finds.

Historic England has appointed Cotswold Archaeology to undertake archaeological assessments, including geophysical and diver surveys, of three sites designated under the Protection of Wrecks Act 1973. Langdon Bay, Brighton Marina and Hanover have not been fully assessed by archaeologists for many years. Assessments are therefore needed to help inform their future management as there may be little, if any, archaeological remains left on the sites; in the absence of significant archaeological remains de-designation of these sites would enable Historic England to better prioritise resources.
