The BBC TV news visits the Wildwood

The BBC TV news visited the Wildwood to see a few of my discoveries recently, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1os0-jqfk4 particularly from the Roman era.

Presenter Sandra Harris and cameraman Charlie Figgis were amazed at the wonderful isolation of this precious environment. I have been doing quite a lot of archaeological work during the summer, everything is recorded of course and some of my discoveries will appear here in the future.

Stuart King

I was born in the Buckinghamshire village of Holmer Green in 1942, and played as a child in the local Beech woods. The countryside and the trades and traditions of those that shaped it over centuries have always fascinated me and influenced my work.

I have spent a lifetime researching, recording and collecting anything about the rural past and today am a well-known artist craftsman, demonstrator, international lecturer and photo-journalist.
