Cotswold Archaeology’s Senior Marine Heritage consultant, Michael Walsh, has recently obtained his HSE Scuba diving qualifications. Michael already has almost two hundred hours diving experience and gaining this qualification allows his participation in the variety of underwater projects that Cotswold Archaeology is currently undertaking. These include the excavation of the wreck of the London in the Thames estuary and the recently commissioned Historic England project looking at the possible de-designation of three sites, Langdon Bay, Hanover, and Brighton Marina. This is an important next step in the expansion of the services offered by the marine team here at Cotswold.
