Gloucester Archaeology in the 1970s

Fascinating film, I remember those digs. Just after then I became a member of GDARG for a year or two and helped on a small dig near St Oswald's Priory, where we found remains of Roman housing, the frontage of which followed the line of the modern street.

Wow, amazing. Would love to talk to you about that sometime. Maybe when the Folk is open again (July) you could come over for a chat?

@@TheFolkofGloucester Yes, I will do that, it's been a very long time since I was in the Folk Museum.

I was there, and remember it well.

This is SO interesting - and, very telling. Some real history! It's a personal opinion, (they usually are), but I believe Gloucester was "savaged" by developers/planners during the 60s and 70s. I think this is an important document.
