Dave Pollock

Before moving to Ireland in the 1990s I produced a small guide for visitors to the ruined priory at Whithorn, with line drawings and text on card.

I put together a souvenir booklet for the Whithorn Trust, on the excavations. The first booklet was half in colour, and the second entirely in colour. 

In Ireland I have put work into the Cahir Castle (Co. Tipperary) souvenir guide, and the Barryscourt Castle (Co. Cork) and Scattery Island (Co. Clare) leaflets, all for the National Monuments Service, OPW. I updated indoor displays at Jerpoint Abbey (Co. Kilkenny), Ferns Castle and Tintern Abbey (both Co. Wexford), for the National Monuments Service, OPW and in recent years produced a number of outdoor panels for Waterford Council’s Heritage Officer.

In 2013 I produced a guide to the medieval archaeology of Dungarvan, as a small illustrated book, and the following year produced a similar guide to medieval Waterford. Further guides are planned.

About Us

We are both on the list of archaeologists eligible for excavation licences. Every archaeological excavation in Ireland needs a licence, issued jointly by the National Monuments Service and the National Museum.

Archaeological Illustration

We illustrate our own reports, and integrate the drawings into the text rather than add them to the end. We draw finds and offer an illustration service to produce publication drawings from site records and objects.

Archaeological Fieldwork

Most of our fieldwork (excavation and survey) is carried out during archaeological impact assessments, or as a follow up, monitoring or investigating areas at risk of being disturbed.
