Phil Harding
Phil is one of the most experienced members of the Team and has been a full time archaeologist since 1971. On site Phil is the lead field archaeologist - woe betide anyone who hasn't got straight sections in their trench. His greatest love in archaeology is prehistory and he's a dab hand at knapping flint himself. When not working with the Team he's a field archaeologist at Wessex Archaeology and recently received an honorary doctorate from the University of Southampton. He also plays the guitar and has been known to bring it along to entertain the Team in the evenings!
I wonder if he will play at the open mic at the Merry Monk Wednesday
Phil explained what had been found so far at the dig site and what they hoped to find.
Near to the Castle Hall he said they have found the foundation of what is possibly a kitchen, they have found a few coins and original roof tiles, the trench is very deep.
