Specialist Reports & Further Details: Text only versions

Please go to the illustrated specialists report catalogue if you wish to view the reports with figures and formatting.

This page is designed to act as a gateway to various specialist reports and further data which have been developed from the archaeological work on the Nosterfield site. The reports represent ongoing work, not definitive statements, and have been produced over a period of more than ten years to advise the excavators. They will continue to be developed as work on the site progresses and the views they contain will no doubt be reviewed in light of the ever expanding body of data being accumulated from fieldwork. Ultimately they will form part of the site archive and contribute to the final report.

Please see the contributors & acknowledgements page for details of the various authors and organizations who have produced the reports. The following more detailed reports are available on-line, listed below by category:
