Research
My PhD research looks to explore continuity and change between the Late Iron Age and Roman periods on the Yorkshire Wolds, utilising a range of remote sensing techniques to investigate evolving rural settlement patterns, land use and division. In addition to employing an extensive aerial photographic study of this landscape, this research project is also heavily engaged in developing innovative geophysical prospection data collection methods.
