English Heritage Historical Review

Editor: Richard Hewlings, English Heritage, Cambridge, UK

 

Launched in 2006, English Heritage Historical Review is a rich source of historical research and interpretation. The journal focuses on discoveries from English Heritage properties, including landscapes, structures and their contents. The Roman Amphitheatre at Chester and the Roman Pharos at Dover Castle are just two of the compelling topics from Volumes One and Two.
