Description

The marine aggregate industry accounts for around 21 per cent of the sand and gravel used in England and Wales and the discovery of archaeological finds is thus a relatively common occurrence during the course of dredging. As a result, in August 2005 the British Marine Aggregate Producers Association (BMAPA), in conjunction with English Heritage, published a Protocol for reporting finds of archaeological interest. The Protocol was prepared by Wessex Archaeology and has subsequently been adopted by all members of BMAPA.

This pack contains advice and guidance in support of the BMAPA/EH Protocol Implementation Service.
It includes:
Handout 1 – Introduction
Handout 2 – The Reporting Process
Handout 3 – Metalwork and Concretions
Handout 4 – Munitions and Ordnance
Handout 5 – Photographing Finds
Handout 6 – Conservation and Storage
Handout 7 – Timeline
