I love #Lidar, and this is why. This is this mornings view of Berry Ring Hillfort, Staffordshire. An Aerial View hides the Hillfort, Surface Model Lidar gives a better hint, Wiping away the trees (Terrain Model) leaves no doubt! Digital #Archaeology for #HillfortsWednesday

The men were members of a criminal gang which set up safe houses in Carlisle homes where children lived during a cunning plot to flood the city with illegal drugs. newsandstar.co.uk/news/19704014.…

Another recent Roman statue discovery! bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

Could this be a rare example of a 'hermaphroditic' statue in Britain? Are there any others?

#Lidar has to be one of the best ways of appreciating #Roman Britain - here seen to good effect at #Chesters Fort in Northumberland.

Another fantastic discovery from #Roman Britain. To be aired on 'Digging For Britain' early in 2022. #Romanhistory #Romanmosaics

The #Roman Legionary forts at York and Chester can still be traced in the modern cities. This is #Lincoln and again, the playing card shape of the #fort can just be discerned. It is even clearer if we use #Lidar to demolish the buildings, leaving the Castle. #RomanSiteSaturday

There are many ways to view #LiDAR data and this is a fun one. I needed a half decent #IronAge #Hillfort so here's Maiden Castle, Dorset and I swing a fake sun across the sky for some good shadows. Too well known for #HillfortsWednesday but a good example for #FridayLidar

Wise words on a Fingerpost near Cartmel Fell church, Cumbria. #FingerpostFriday

This was "Patrick's Big Mill" in the Village of West End, Washburn Valley, N. Yorkshire. It is slowly emerging from the waters of Thruscross reservoir as the levels fall, where the village has been hidden since 1966. #Underwater #Archaeology

It was a pleasure to take members of the Irish Tourist Board on a walk along #HadriansWall last week. We walked from Cawfields to Caw Gap and ended at Steel Rigg for the wonderful view. Virtual Tourist @HeartlandsIRLeu @VisitHadriansWalliul Hadrian's Wall #IrelandsHiddenHeartlands
