The Humber Archaeology Partnership holds the Sites and Monuments Record for the East Riding of Yorkshire and Hull. It provides advice on planning, development and site management as well as providing a public information service.
The Humber SMR has records of archaeological sites and finds dating from the prehistoric period until the post-medieval period, including Scheduled Monuments. Generally artefacts and sites dating up to and including 1700AD are recorded. The SMR holds records of listed buildings, and other buildings of historic or intrinsic local, regional or national interest and also has records of buildings marked on the first edition OS maps and 20th century fortifications.
The SMR Comprises around 17,000 paper and computer records held on an exeGesIS database. There is also an extensive collection of aerial photographs and a slide collection of archaeological sites and finds from the region.
Hello, Do you have for general public reference any printed data about the amazing burial find on the Persimmons Homes housing development site at Pocklington? I refer to the grave in which the deceased was interred with chariot and his horses etc
Also i have just seen a mention in the Daily Telegraph last week to the Roos Meer Figurines which Hull Museums apparently have. Being particularly computer illiterate I`ve been unable to track down any Hull Museums website or phone number for the establishment where the figurines are kept. Are they on public display?
I`d be grateful if you can provide information about these important finds. Thank you. DON CHESTER
