Wessex Archaeology was invited by NMC Nomenca to present at a Lunch and Learn session for contractors working with Severn Trent Water on 15 October 2014. Alexandra Grassam’s (Senior Heritage Consultant) and Andrew Norton’s (Regional Manager, North) presentation ‘An Introduction to Archaeology’ provided a history of archaeology in the planning process and explained the range of archaeological and heritage services that Wessex Archaeology can offer. The event took place at Severn Trent Water’s offices in Derby and in particular focused on how our work applies to utility and linear schemes.
