The London Archaeological Prize, administered by the London Archaeologist, aims to encourage a higher standard of writing and broader coverage of London’s archaeology. The two WA publications nominated and shortlisted expand on the archaeological work that took place on the site of the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Author of the two volumes, Andrew B Powell, and editor, Pippa Bradley, attended the awards ceremony last night at the London Archaeology Forum meeting, and were delighted to have been shortlisted for such a highly contested award. Our congratulations go to the winner Hazel Forsyth, Museum of London, for London’s Lost Jewels: The Cheapside Hoard.
