Joan Eileen Annie Liversidge FSA (May 1914 - 16 January 1984) was an English archaeologist who specialised in Roman Britain.
[1] She was a Founding Fellow of Lucy Cavendish College, Cambridge.
Liversidge took a social history approach to Roman Britain which was undervalued in subsequent decades.
[1] As with the undervaluing of her social history approach, her findings that several Roman villas in Britain (Box, Atworth, East Grinstead, Stroud, and Titsey) were of more than one storey in height were overshadowed by assertions of R.G.Collingwood and Ian Richmond that such structures had only one story, but re-evaluations in 1982 found that such buildings could be of greater height.
[5] An archive of her papers is held by Lucy Cavendish College.
