English Heritage Historical Review
The English Heritage estate consists of some 420 properties ranging from
pre-historic sites to nuclear bunkers. Each requires at least periodic
audits of the available historical information, and often a more
penetrating scrutiny.
English Heritage Historical Review is a new and unique source of
historical research and interpretation. The journal focuses on
discoveries from the English Heritage estate, including landscapes,
structures, properties and their contents. It reveals English Heritage's
fundamental commitment to, and core skills in providing new historical
interpretation which will stimulate further discussion and debate.
The contributors to the journal are all from English Heritage including
the organisation's historians, archaeologists and curators. Their
research is previously unpublished and is lavishily illustrated
throughout.
