Hannah is an archaeologist with a keen interest in climate change and the environment. 

After graduating from the University of Edinburgh with an MA in History and Archaeology, Hannah started her career in the climate change team at HES. She completed an MRes at Orkney College UHI in 2021, investigating the palaeoenvironmental record associated with Bronze and Iron Age roundhouses in Wester Ross. 

Hannah has excavated sites in Britain and Ireland, working for Rubicon Heritage, Historic England, and the Ness of Brodgar Trust amongst others. Working with RCAHMW, Hannah managed the outreach and engagement activities for CHERISH, an EU project which investigated sites at risk from climate change impacts on the coasts of Wales and Ireland.

Hannah joins the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland from the Discovery Programme, which undertakes research projects across the island of Ireland.

As the ScARF Research Manager, Hannah co-ordinates the Regional Research Frameworks projects for the North East and Forth Valley and Fife.

Favourite heritage: Stones of Stenness – a Megalithic monument with cosy hearth – and in my favourite Scottish World Heritage Site, the Heart of Neolithic Orkney
