Helen Castor is joined by Mike Heyworth of the Council for British Archaeology and Dan Hicks from the University of Oxford, discussing the impact of spending cuts on local archaeology services and how to overcome them. Dr Ruth Young is just back from the Lebanon where a team from the University of Leicester have been working fruitfully in places that were once thought to have been wiped clean of archaeological significance by the civil war. Tom Holland is on Dartmoor to look at the first stone circle to be discovered there for over a century and one that, we think, has been untouched for hundreds of years. Producer: Nick Patrick A Pier production for BBC Radio 4.
