| Introduction | I studied archaeology at the University of Nottingham (BA Archaeology & MA Archaeological Research), and undertook my PhD research (Ethnic, social, and cultural identity in Roman and post-Roman Western Britain) at the University of Sheffield. I'm in the process of completing post-excavation research on the Roman and post-Roman activity at Crickley, in preparation of Vol. 6 of the series of site reports. I also have an interest in the archaeology of early 20th century Britain, in particular what archaeology might tell us about the constriction of social identities (such as gender, status, and national identity) within domestic contexts. I currently run a community archaeology project, investigating everyday (mostly working-class) life in the Midlands during the late 19th - early 20th century.
