âIf you have done a desk-top and walkover survey that concludes that there is very little chance of any archaeology being present, it can be hard to justify carrying out something as onerous as a trial excavation.â
Onerous excavation -not to me mate, bread and butter for diggers.
I would suggest that if they went straight for evaluation without all the flaffing with desk-tops and âwalkover surveyâ (not sure that there are any standards for that or for geephiz) it would be cheaper for the client and we would end up with an archive (and get rid of the consultants ish).
âit can be hard to âjustifyâ carrying outâ - peepgee has evaluation written all over it.
