Book excerpt: The National Trust owns approximately 40,000 archaeological sites in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and in 1995 (its centenary year) the Trust, in close co-operation with the Society of Antiquaries, held a conference designed to highlight the important part archaeology now plays in the management of its properties. Historic houses, so long identified as the main interest of the National Trust, were touched on only in so far as they offer an opportunity or provide the context for archaeological research.
