Graham Alexander Webster OBE (31 May 1913 – 21 May 2001) was a British archaeologist, one of the pre-eminent figures of Roman-British archaeology in the late 20th century.
During World War II he served with the Air Ministry, building airfields, and during this period became engaged in archaeological excavations, most notably in the cities of Canterbury and Lincoln.
[3] Webster also studied for an MA at Manchester University and helped organise an archaeological training school at Great Casterton in Rutland.
He conducted a number of excavations, notably at Waddon Hill, Dorset and at Barnsley Park, Gloucestershire (1961–1979), the latter developing into an archaeological training school and where he met his second wife, Diana (married 1968).
[3] Throughout his long career he gained a reputation as an inspiring archaeological mentor, always willing, despite his enormous commitments, to give advice and practical assistance to both the expert and neophyte.
