Reburial of archaeological sites

The guidance is a revision of the previous Appendix 5 text from the suite of Preserving archaeological remains guidance, first published in 2016.

It has been developed to provide more detail on the information that needs to be collected before sites are reburied and to update recommendations on suitable materials for use in the reburial of archaeological sites.
