Artist Lucy Orta and archaeologist and military heritage specialist John Schofield discussed their collaborative engagement with Greenham Common through their involvement with Common Ground, an interdisciplinary research group which set out to explore the site through archaeological survey and artistic intervention. Greenham Common has an illustrious but controversial past, having served as a Royal Air Force base in World War II, and an American airbase for much of the Cold War.
