Our project is now up and running, with all the staff in place. Today, we were pleased to welcome members of our steering group up to Durham for its first meeting. The group, which consists of archaeologists, historians and other specialists is going to provide some support, advice and oversight to the project over the next three years. Today, we introduced them to the main project aims and were able to outline some of the basic tasks we've been carrying out to get the project set up. We were also able to explore some of the wide range of data available to us and think about how we might incorporate it into the project. The steering group had lots of useful ideas - it's clear we are going to need to think carefully about how we engage with the communities associated with each of our study areas to ensure we avoid too much of a 'top-down' perspective. Luckily, we're already starting to forge links with local people, although there is still much to do. Overall, a stimulating day; all of us left buzzing with ideas.
