Consists of a database of almost 9000 radiocarbon dates for Great Britain and Ireland, comprehensive until 1982, with some later additions in 1991 and further updated in 2001. Information from the CBA's Radiocarbon Index has been supplemented in this database by further dates from the Oxford RadioCarbon Accelerator Unit datelist index (although the database contains less detailed information on these samples). It is intended to approach other RadioCarbon dating laboratories to gather additional dates and update the database on a periodic basis.

This volume holds a datelist of radiocarbon determinations carried out between 1970 and 1982 on behalf of the Ancient Monuments Laboratory, now part of English Heritage. It also contains supporting information about the samples and the sites producing them, a comprehensive bibliography, and three indexes for reference and analysis. The datelist has been collated to give access to a large body of information which, although mostly published elsewhere, has never before been accessible in a consistent form. When these dates were produced, high-precision calibration was not possible; now that this is available all dates have been converted, thus giving archaeologists and others using radiocarbon dates the opportunity to review their dating results in the light of this calibration, and with hindsight. The indexes order the complex information contained in the datelist by HAR numbers and by true calendar dates.

This volume holds a datelist of 476 radiocarbon determinations carried out between 2002 and 2004 in support of research funded by English Heritage through the Aggregates Levy Sustainability Fund. It contains supporting information about the samples and the sites producing them, a comprehensive bibliography, and two indexes for reference and analysis. An introduction provides information about the scientific dating undertaken, and methods used for the analyses reported. Details of technical reports available for programmes of luminescence dating and amino-acid racemization funded under this scheme are also provided. The datelist has been collated from information provided by the submitters of samples and the dating laboratories, in order to provide easy access to raw scientific and contextual data which may be used in further research. Many of the sites and projects from which dates have been obtained are published, or are in the process of publication. Full references are given to these reports for those requiring further detail.

This volume contains a list of radiocarbon age determinations carried out between 1970 and 1982 on behalf of the Ancient Monuments Laboratory and funded by English Heritage. It also contains supporting information about the samples and sites producing them and indexes which may be used for reference and analysis. The cross-references of radio-carbon dates to their archaeological assumptions provides interesting specualtion on the application of radiocarbon dating in English archaeology. The sites and objects analysed are diverse, and include The Brooks, Winchester, Wharram Percy, Somerset Levels, Rivenhall, Poundbury, Mucking, Danebury. Also contains a comprehensive bibliography, and indexes ordering the information contained in the datelist by HAR numbers and by true calender dates.
