Our joint ventures with other commercial archaeological organisations have been among our most successful projects, and have uncovered some amazing archaeology that has transformed our understanding of past landscapes. Here we take a look back at some of our ‘JVs’. Framework Archaeology in 2006 and 2010, and the project was awarded the Best Framework Archaeology was not only the fi rst joint Archaeological Project prize at the Bri sh Archaeology venture that OA was a part of but was also the fi rst joint Awards in 2008.

Highly innova ve in its recording systems and interpreta ve approach, FA carried out some of the largest excava ons in Britain.

The broad character zone is defined by the extent of the Norman castle defences and includes part of the former canal basin located to the north. Summary characteristics • Dominant period: Mixture of medieval, post-medieval and modern. • Designations: Oxford Castle is a Scheduled Ancient Monument (County No 21701). Two Grade I, three Grade II*, eight Grade II listings. Central Conservation Area. • Archaeological Interest: Potential for further Late Saxon, Norman, medieval, post-medieval remains and later prison remains. Specific features of note include the remains of the Saxon street grid, settlement and defences, the Norman and later castle precinct, defences, Church of St Budoc and the Collegiate Chapel of St George. The area also includes the site of the medieval Shire Court and the 18th century prison complex. The area has exceptional potential for well preserved waterlogged remains and for human burials of Saxon, medieval and post-medieval date including the remains of prisoners thrown into the castle ditch. The built fabric of medieval well house, the St Georges Tower, the 12th rebuilt crypt of the Collegiate Chapel and the 18th century prison are also of notable interest. • Character: Modern leisure, retail and heritage complex of stone built structures carefully integrated with medieval and post-medieval fabric of the motte, St Georges Tower and the 18th century prison. • Spaces: The site contains a series of paved yards and squares which utilise historic spaces and allow public access through the complex.
