Margaret Faull

Faull was born on 4 April 1946 and grew up in Sydney. She undertook a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree in the Department of Archaeology, University of Leeds. Faull worked as an archaeologist for what was at the time the West Yorkshire Metropolitan County Council, followed by employment at Thwaite Mills Industrial Museum in Leeds. In 1986, she supported the banning of South African archaeologists from the World Archaeological Congress as part of the Academic boycott of South Africa in opposition to apartheid. She became director of the Yorkshire Mining Museum in Wakefield in 1986 or 1987. She completed a Master of Arts (MA) degree at the University of Sheffield in 1990, with a thesis titled "The Use by Local Authorities of the Charitable Trust as a Vehicle for Establishing and Operating Museums. Two Case Studies: Caphouse Colliery and Thwaite Mills". The Yorkshire Mining Museum became the National Coal Mining Museum for England in 1995. She was elected a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London (FSA) on 4 April 2005. In the 2009 Queen's Birthday Honours, she was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) "for services to industrial heritage", particularly due to her work at the Coal Mining Museum. ==Publications==
