Review
This collection of articles details research of a number of leading experts in the history and archaeology of the Witham Valley. A technical work aimed at the professional, it contains a unique account of a hidden history which is likely to interest many an amateur researcher too.
The valley of the River Witham is today a land of arable fields and open skies. There is little to be seen that would give a clue to the extraordinary past that lies buried there. [AG]
