Introduction to the Archaeology Service

Welcome to the Shropshire Council Archaeology Service's homepage, where you can find out about the services we provide and some of our projects.

Shropshire has a rich and varied wealth of historic monuments and archaeological sites dating from prehistoric times to the Industrial Revolution. This unique archaeological heritage is an important cultural resource and one which we want to protect and enhance for the enjoyment of present and future generations.

Established in 1988, we work with our colleagues in Shropshire Council and in the local community to offer a comprehensive range of archaeology services for developers, contractors, heritage groups, and others throughout the county of Shropshire.

We are part of Shropshire Council's Historic Environment Team. For other services offered by the Historic Environment Team - including planning-related historic environment advice, or information about the Council's Historic Environment Record (Sites and Monuments Record) - please follow the links on this page
