In May and June 2011 we undertook an excavation of a rectangular structure in Upper Pasture (Ribblesdale) with some suprising results..... Click here for the official report and here to read our blog

Between 2007 and 2011 members of the IAG undertook a survey of the archaeological features on the north-west flanks of Ingleborough. All of the recorded features were photographed and details were entered on to a spreadsheet. Essays covering many different aspects of the survey have been written by members of the group. To view the spreadsheet, photographs,plans and essays click here.

In July 2010 the IAG undertook a survey of Leck Fell. Click here to see the interim report and click here to see the associated spreadsheet detailing all of the recorded features. Warning:This is a large (5MB) file you will be downloading

In 2007 & 2008 the IAG undertook the excavation of potentially ancient earthworks at Masongill Hall after first clearing away tons of accumulated rubbish! Click here to read a report about the excavation.

In 2007 IAG were commissioned by the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority to undertake a mitigation exercise on the only known stone-building within the Ribblehead construction camps, to determine its original form and functions and to stabilise the feature for posterity.

Also in 2007 the IAG joined with the Upper Wharfedale Heritage Group to excavate a lime kiln at Kilnsey. Click here for a report of the Kilnsey Sow Kiln Excavation

From 2006 to 2008 IAG undertook a survey of a complex series of remains on Ireby Fell. Whilst these sites have not been excavated and dated they suggest occupation at various dates from the Bronze Age to Early Medieval. As the area surveyed was so large it was decided to produce an Interactive Map linking drawings and photographs to the surveyed remains. It is hoped that this interactive map will be available on the website soon.

In 2007 the group investigated timbers found in Kingsdale Beck at Sandymire with some very interesting results. Click here to read the report.

In 2005 IAG began excavating a site at Kingsdale Head which revealed occupation from the Mesolithic through the Bronze Age to late Medieval.
