Welcome to the blog for our project ‘Conserving The Living Archive’, led by Dr Pauline Couper and Dr Ben Garlick of York St John University, in partnership with Natural England.

Our project aims to explore the cultural, historical and environmental geographies, landscapes and practices that have shaped, and continue to shape, the Humberhead Peatlands.

On this site you can find information about the project, details about how to get involved, and semi-regular updates on progress, findings and associated publications.

Many thanks for your interest!

Pauline & Ben
