Why study Archaeology at 糖心logo入口?

Focusing on the archaeology of the River Thames, the fieldschool provides training in a range of practical survey and recording skills through to post-excavation and archive. We take advantage of our central London location, next door to the British Museum, and include site and collection visits in our teaching.
