Staff Update
Gary Nobles, our second IFA/HLF bursary placement, finished in March this year. We are happy to report that Gary is continuing to take full advantage of the range of skills he developed during his time with us and has recently been appointed as SMR assistant at Gloucester County Council.
Long serving ADS Curatorial Officer Jen Mitcham is currently on maternity leave and we are very pleased to welcome Ray Moore to the team to cover her post from August this year. Ray, originally from the Isle of Man, studied archaeology at Lampeter and Liverpool before researching for his PhD on Viking Age Isle of Man at the University of York. His research explored some sophisticated reflexive approaches to GIS and the presentation of multi-layered narratives via multi-media web platforms. However, he is currently concentrating on improving his web development skills here at the ADS. His first archive, Rill Cove Find Recording Project (by Kevin Camidge) has already been completed and released. The principal aim of the project was to produce a record of the objects recovered from the protected wreck site between 1976 and 1992 and the archive features documentation, an image gallery and a downloadable database..
