 Andrew has had a paper accepted for the 2021 Congress of the Society for Post Medieval Archaeology. The Congress will be delivered on-line this year due to the Covid restrictions.

The paper will describe the publication written by Dr William Brownrigg in 1771 about how to prevent the spread of contagious diseases and link his suggestions to the current Covid-19 pandemic.

In 1748 Dr Browbrigg wrote a paper about how to improve salt making.
