LECTURE: Reimagining Roundhouses with Trevor Creighton

In this special lecture for the 2024 Festival of Archaeology, Trevor Creighton will discuss the way in which we have come to form our ideas of what late prehistoric roundhouses were like, and why we need to reimagine them. Trevor will draw upon examples of Dorset roundhouses in his discussion.
