I've just moved to Birmingham and more than any other city centre I have been to it seems to be constantly building atop itself. As I stand on the pavement below me lie train tracks, above a shopping centre and I'm really not sure where the surface starts.

A friend finds some genuine treasure. The expert may have said it was costume jewelry, but I like to think its from Queen Elizabeth 1sts Sunday afternoon tea time crown :) We were down on the beach as part of the Fun on the Foreshore day, itself part of National Archaeology Week. For my favourite picture of the day click here.

This animal bone was excavated by someone, then left abandoned propped up in its hole waiting for the incoming tide to bury it again for the next generation. Part of the Fun on the Foreshore day, itself part of National Archaeology Week.

Today (26/07/08) was a rare chance to wander on the foreshore of the Thames in front of the Tower of London. A fake beach, constructed in the 18th century out of dumped rubbish (bricks, pottery, clay pipes, slag, bits of metal etc) to enable boats to be pulled ashore, this area is normally closed to the public. As part of National Archaeology Week it is opened up with a host of archaeologists to tell you about what you find...and you get to take the material home (assuming it isn't a Roman brooch or a medieval crown that is!). Click on 'All Sizes' to see, well, all sizes.
