EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This Archaeological Market Survey report is on the State of the Market for Archaeological Services in the United Kingdom in 2016-17. It has been prepared by Landward Research Ltd on behalf of the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA), FAME (Federation of Archaeological Managers and Employers) and Historic England. The survey has gathered data via a questionnaire sent to FAME members and CIfA Registered Organisations, therefore the focus is primarily on the commercial archaeology sector. In addition, some limited subsidiary data have been examined for the numbers of archaeologists employed by planning authorities, as this is also pertinent to understanding the state of the archaeological market
