Poulton in the snow
A very recent and seasonal picture showing why things are
rather quiet on site at the moment. Many thanks to Catherine Mcginn-roberts for
permission to use her photograph.

Poulton on TV
The TV series featuring Poulton has been given a slot in
the schedules. The series, called 'Grave Trade' starts on the (UK) History
channel at 22:00 on Tuesday 15th January. Poulton is featured in Episode 4, to
be shown on February 5th. Alas the series is only available on Sky and Virgin
media. More details at
History Channel website
Latest discoveries
It is very early days yet and everything needs further work and confirmation but
we have recently discovered a number of post-holes at the Chapel site. Plotting
them and how they relate to each other suggests there may be two circular
features underlying the Chapel. The first, at the east end, is about 15m
diameter (that's about the same size as the timber circle). The second, at the
west end, is about 31m diameter. Work to clarify what these represent will
continue in the new year.
Honours
We are very pleased to formally announce that Mike Emery, Alan
Wilmshurst and Ray Carpenter are now Honorary Lecturers at Liverpool John Moores
University. We are greatly flattered and honoured by this and the recognition it
brings to Poulton. Read the story on the LJMU web site
