From Hollow Way to Lay-By

An Archaeology of Nine Demonstration Plots at a Lowland Agricultural Extension Station

A paper from the School of Emergent Priorities surveys and trenches the nine successive demonstration plots on the grounds of one lowland agricultural extension station, ordering them by bund superposition, a seriation of corner markers and the station's own register. Each plot is smaller than the last and nearer the road, its signboard footing larger; the first five were reached by a sunken footpath from the gate, the last three from a gravel lay-by in the road verge, and none of the nine was ever removed.
