“England in Stone: Archaeology at Canterbury Cathedral” led by Nathalie Cohen, Cathedral Archaeologist and National Trust

Biography

After training on sites in Sussex, Wiltshire and London, I worked on a number of different archaeological projects including the Monuments at Risk Survey in the East Midlands, (English Heritage / Bournemouth University), the Grimes London Archive Project and the Thames Archaeological Survey (both at the Museum of London), and overseas at sites in Israel, the Czech Republic and Romania.

I worked at Museum of London Archaeology Service (now MOLA) for over 15 years; as the Archivist for the unit, as a field archaeologist on excavations, and as a specialist in community engagement, inter-tidal zone archaeology and built heritage, on sites across Greater London, Kent, Buckinghamshire, Somerset, Devon and Surrey. I led the Thames Discovery Programme (community archaeology on London’s foreshore) for ten years and completed an MA in Maritime Archaeology at University College London in 2007.  I was also the Cathedral Archaeologist at Southwark Cathedral for eight years.

I currently work for the National Trust, as the regional Archaeologist for Kent and East Sussex, and I am the Cathedral Archaeologist for Canterbury Cathedral.
