Author: Ian Mackey

With a diverse background spanning structural engineering, RN diving, and 15 years as a musician alongside commercial IT development, I transitioned to Networks Services Management at the University of Cambridge for over 20 years. Later, I studied Archaeology & Heritage and became a commercial archaeologist. Currently, I am involved with two YACs and serve as a trustee for the Offa's Dyke Association, where I contribute to outreach efforts.
