We've had lots of great comments about Devon's finest buildings historian, Dr Richard Parker. So, we thought it about time to share our 'Spoil Heap' Q&A from Modbury!

Richard is joined by Derek and Lawrence to answer your questions.

For more insights from Richard, check out our earlier interview on 'Historic Building Reconstruction', which highlights his skills as an illustrator and draftsman.

We'd also like to take this opportunity to thank Richard for providing our Word of the Month: niminy-piminy.

Great interview. So much more to archaeology than digging. Context!

I enjoyed the conversation with Dr. Parker. Yes, niminy-piminy is a very cool word. It must be a highly technical archaeological term :-).
