Film 16 2002 Agincourt Archaeology Project. The end of the final survey and we find a new friend.
In 2002 battlefield archaeologist, Tim Sutherland and metal detectorist, Simon Richardson were invited to investigate the accepted battlefield site for Granada Television as guests of the Centre Historique Médiéval d'Azincourt. The Agincourt Battlefield Archaeology Project was thus initiated. Sutherland and Richardson had already carried out successful archaeological research on the battlefield at Towton, North Yorkshire (1461), locating over 1,000 artefacts from the battle, including hundreds of medieval arrowheads, in addition to many graves of former combatants. It was therefore considered likely that similar prospection techniques could locate evidence of the battle of Agincourt. During the initial Agincourt fieldwork, several of the fields still contained crops and were therefore not accessible to be surveyed, but enough fields were available for a reasonable archaeological sample of the battlefield to be undertaken using metal detectors. This was carried out by walking up and down the field under investigation in a systematic manner using the lines of crops or soil marks as a guide.
