Time Team in Orkney

Since OAT was formed the Time Team has made two trips to Orkney. The first was to work on the Ness of Brough in Sanday. The results are currently in post-excavation with Steve Dockrill and Julie Bond at Bradford University.

Daphne visited the site with Neil and Rosemary McCance, Sheena Wenham and Rosemary Jenkins (pictured below).
