Welcome to the future of heritage

It has been a pleasure to work with Wessex Archaeology throughout my time on this project, you have been a great team of professionals throughout.

Working with Wessex Archaeology, we can be confident that any artefacts are handled delicately and we’re delighted to see they’ve unearthed so many items spanning decades of history.

A positive, can do attitude and flexible approach to rapid programme and scope changes.

Over the course of a decade, investigations by Wessex Archaeology have provided a new perspective on the submerged historic environment of the Thames.

By River, Fields and Factory is a hugely readable, compelling and enjoyable account of the change in land use and associated structures from the prehistoric period to present day.

SAMPHIRE’s methodology has a great degree of transferability and is an excellent model for similar sites throughout Europe.

All the participants and collaborators in the T5 project must be congratulated on their bold, innovative and timely attempt to enrich archaeological methods, recording systems and reporting procedures.

The County Historic Environment Team has been impressed with Wessex Archaeology’s professionalism, quality of fieldwork and public engagement, regular liaison with the Historic Environment Team and commitment to the project.
