Here is the full (in High Definition!) lecture from last month on our Licenced Metal Detection survey of the 1798 Battlefield at Vinegar Hill, Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford, forming part of The Longest Day Project which is examining in detail the archaeology of the battle. The survey was carried out by an international research team (including Earthsound's Ciarán Davis and Darren Regan, as well as IT Sligo, Rubicon Heritage, Cotswold Archaeology and the 1798 Interpretation Centre), funded by Wexford County Council. The presentation is given by Rubicon Heritage's Damien Shiels. https://youtu.be/jFM1uZKH5gQ
