British Archaeology, No 5, June 1995: Interview
Interview in british archaeology June 1995 with the chief archaeologist for the National Trust.
http://www.britarch.ac.uk/ba/ba5/ba5int.html

Extractions: ISSN 1357-4442 Editor: Simon Denison INTERVIEW Simon Denison talks to David Thackray The National Trust is not an organisation one immediately associates with archaeology, but its 580,000 acres of land in fact contain tens of thousands of sites and monuments - including such famous names as Stonehenge, Avebury and Hadrian's Wall - not to mention vast tracts of historic landscape. It is one of the richest, perhaps the richest owner of archaeological sites in Britain; and in its centenary year, questions are now in the air about how well it looks after its vast share of our archaeological heritage. David Thackray, the Trust's chief archaeological advisor, was also its first full-time archaeological employee - appointed more or less straight from his PhD in 1975 - which suggests that the Trust has perhaps not taken archaeology that seriously for very long. Indeed, his appointment followed a number of cases in which ancient monuments on Trust land had been ploughed out or otherwise damaged, leading to a campaign of pressure on the Trust to take its responsibilities more to heart. And since then? In conservation, there has been steady improvement - though, as Dr Thackray admits, the importance of archaeology is still not fully accepted in all reaches of the organisation, with only something over half the National Trust's 16 regions now employing an archaeological advisor. As for research, the Trust still does very little, remaining, perhaps, as intellectually passive vis-a-vis archaeology as it has been accused of being in its management of country houses.

British Archaeology, No 7, September 1995: Interview
Interview in british archaeology September 1995 with the Director of the successful York Archaeological Trust and retiring President of the CBA.
http://www.britarch.ac.uk/ba/ba7/ba7int.html

Extractions: Simon Denison talks to Peter Addyman If the presidency of the CBA had a formal `job description', it might read something like this: massively time-consuming work, much of it at weekends, endless travelling to represent the CBA as advocate, conciliator, enthusiast and guide; payment, nil; thanks, occasional; pleasure, potential; prestige, enormous. Sounds fun? Perhaps not. But Peter Addyman, who retires as President this month, has carried out the task with diligence and - he insists - great enjoyment for the past three years. There are many at the CBA, aware of the burden of work he has voluntarily taken on, who will be sorry to see him go. Peter Addyman's `real job' is at the York Archaeological Trust, which he set up, and has directed, since 1972. The Trust is one of the most commercially innovative of Britain's professional units, and visitors are treated with a kind of smart business panache: we met there on one of the hottest days of the year, and out came the strawberries and sparkling elderflower cordial no instant coffee for guests at this unit! Peter Addyman is canny and circumspect, naturally reticent about his feelings and private life, and aware of the fact that too much heart-searching in front of a journalist may not always do oneself, or one's organisation, any favours. His answers are often indirect - he tells you what he wants you to know - which makes him somewhat perplexing to interview. So to an extent one has to read between the lines.
