Visiting the Past: A Guide to Understanding Britain's Archaeology

Archaeology is all around us in the British landscape and yet, despite the success of programmes such as Time Team, there is not much information available to the interested beginner in how to spot archaeology in their local landscape, or if they do find something interesting, what it might be. This book attempts to rectify this position by providing a guide to how to start going out there and discovering archaeology for yourself, including top tips on what to pack in your starter kit, how to identify features and take records.
