For most projects, the final heritage planning obligation for our clients is to make the results available to the general public. For smaller projects this means a grey-literature report, depositing the site records in the appropriate archive and delivering the finds to the local museum. Sometimes, though, the archaeology found is important enough to merit publishing more detailed reports in academic journals and monographs. For high-profile sites, popular booklets for schools and other community groups and site information boards are often requested. Whilst meeting planning obligations, these can also help clients highlight their role in community engagement and social responsibility.
Publications
All reports and publications rely upon a high level of academic input from our experienced post-excavation team, including finds and environmental specialists. An essential part of all reporting is also the quality of graphics and illustration. A picture really is worth a thousand words and the reputation of our graphics department is second to none.
Our post-excavation team carries out research, specialist analysis, a range of illustrations from large-scale site plans to detailed drawings of artefacts, copy-editing, typesetting, and quality control; in short, delivering a total, professional publication service. We have all the skills and contacts necessary to publish our own books, monographs and popular booklets, as well as preparing technical papers for academic journals. We can also produce site information boards, posters, fliers and other material for clients’ publicity purposes.
