What others say about our work

It's rare to get thanked in any line of business so it's always welcome to receive awards, get great feedback from our clients, or get good reviews for our work. Here are just a few of those positive messages.

'No longer, it seems, are long delays in publication a millstone around the neck of urban archaeology. It is to the immense credit of the team behind this new Oxford Archaeology monograph that the results of an important excavation carried out in Southampton’s medieval French Quarter in 2005 and 2006 – the largest within the town to date – are available so soon, in such good order and presented so attractively. Overall, the formidable team of authors can be congratulated for the new light their monograph sheds on one of medieval England’s foremost ports and its vibrant and strikingly inter-connected community'.

'This is a case study for many students for years to come. It sets a new benchmark for regional analysis to which we all should aspire'.

'Oxford Archaeology successfully carried out a significant archaeological investigation scope on the M1 J6a-10 Widening Scheme. I am extremely comfortable to provide an unreserved recommendation for their appointment on other Balfour Beatty projects'.

'Oxford Archaeology was employed to carry out the recording of the listed buildings and to carry out the archaeological investigations associated with development of the site which is a scheduled ancient monument. They carried out their work in a professional manner and complied at all times with the requirements of the CDM regulations. Their workforce was constantly supervised and we have no hesitation in recommending this company'.
