Artist Simon Watkinson and London Borough of Barking and Dagenham recently commissioned us to undertake scanning work on two iconic pieces of history from Barking and Dagenham forming part of his planned public sculpture, “The Ice Harvest”. The pieces in question were a section of Anglo-Saxon cross shaft from Barking Abbey and a replica of the famous Dagenham Idol, a Bronze Age wooden figure.
