Finds recovered from archaeological field work provide vital information to the archaeologist, offering further insight, dating and an increased understanding of the site and its people in the past.

Accurate and efficient assessment of finds assemblages is vital to any archaeology company whether for a client report or a publication.

I undertake cost-effective and rapid turnaround finds assessments on assemblages including:

• Roman, Medieval and Post-Medieval Metal Finds
  
• Hammered and Milled Coinage/Tokens
  
• Clay Tobacco Pipes
  
• Assorted Other Finds
  

I am also able to offer consultancy/recommendations on finds retrieval, retention and discard.

I have over twenty years experience of working with and preparing reports on archaeological find/small find assemblages from sites of all sizes across England and Wales. I have worked closely with metal detectorists on a wide range of sites including Medieval and Post-medieval battlefields undertaken for the Royal Commission on Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales (RCAHMW). All of my work is competitively priced and undertaken on a rapid turnaround basis.
