Monographs
The Society’s monographs are listed below with details of the two most recent examples:
12. Selborne Priory: Excavations 1953–1971 by David Baker and contributors (2014)
Professor Sir Barry Cunliffe writes “ … a fine example of an Augustinian religious establishment that also plays a revealing part in the archaeological history of the county, excavated between 1953 and 1969 by a band of enthusiastic local amateurs led by the much-loved Rev George Knapp. Selborne Priory can now take its place in archaeological literature as a monument to all those, amateur and professional, who have worked to bring it to life.”

11. Sparsholt Roman Villa Hampshire: Excavations by David E Johnston by David E Johnston and Jonathan Dicks (2014)
David Johnston’s excavation of Sparsholt villa has been described by Professor Martin Biddle as “one of the last triumphs of the age of the local volunteer…” The report of the eight seasons of archaeology from 1965 onwards was brought to publication after David’s death and is now available as an online volume.
