Summary: From the Publisher
Comment: I thought this might be useful.

Travelling around England is, in many senses, a journey back in time. On all sides, and sometimes even under the road itself, there are fragments of the ancient past. England is one of the richest countries in the world when it comes to visible archaeological sites, ancient buildings, and historic towns. Medieval villages, castles, ancient churches, and Roman villas are commonplace. Far older, yet equally abundant, are the barrows, hillforts, stone circles, camps, standing stones, and other relics of prehistoric times that have survived for several thousand years.

This Guide covers all these ancient remains -- ranging from the first appearance of people in what we now call England during the last Ice Age until the end of medieval times around 1600 AD. Written by three archaeologists, each a specialist in the fields of prehistoric, Roman, and medieval sites included in this Guide. Arranged in 12 regional sections, with easy-to-follow instructions on finding and visiting sites. Includes well-known sites such as Stonehenge, the Vale of the White Horse, Hadrian's Wall, Avebury, Maiden Castle, and Winchester, as well as smaller, lesser-known sites, and cities such as London and York which offer a wealth of archaeological remains. 200 photographs, plans, and maps. Introductory section providing background and context to the monuments. Extensive reference section including a glossary, further reading, and chronology. Listings of museums and their collections, contacts for further information, and internet sites.
