Historic buildings and ancient monuments are a major archaeological resource; investigation of buildings has always formed a significant part of the archaeologist's armoury. The chapters in this volume are based on papers given at a symposium by the Institute of Field Archaeologists Buildings Special Interest Group, and the context is carefully structured to ensure that the major issues relating to recording buildings are covered thoroughly. An important book in the study and development of contemporary, practical archaeology. Uncommon. Front cover shows Little Moreton Hall in Cheshire, rear illustration of Furness Abbey in Cumbria.
