About Us

Based in the Brecon Beacons National Park we provide a wide range of archaeological services and products delivering to clients across the United Kingdom. We are also aerial survey specialists using drones (UAVs) to map, measure and record from the air.

Black Mountains Archaeology Ltd / Archaeoleg Mynydd Du Cyf was founded in 2017 and our experienced team of archaeologists have successfully delivered major infrastructure projects and many smaller archaeological investigations across Wales and England for our growing client base. We offer advice, consultancy, desk-based research and fieldwork services to the commercial and private sectors. Our clients include (among others) AECOM, The National Trust, Swansea Council, Swansea University, Monmouthshire County Council, The Celtic Manor Resort, The Range Superstore, Alun Griffiths Contractors, TACP, The Glanusk Estate and Western Power Distribution and many more.

Community archaeology is a strong focus for the company and we have successfully delivered several major community projects in south Wales and we are actively working on several new and exciting projects. Our experience and energy makes our community projects both rewarding and fun whilst delivering important academic results. Our volunteers gain many transferable skills into the workplace and we routinely host work experience placements.
