John Ronald "Ronnie" Lidster (1916–2008)[1] was a British artist, archaeologist and curator based in Yorkshire.

Biography

Lidster was born in Hull in 1916 and moved to Scarborough as a child.[1] During the Second World War he was an artist with the Royal Army Medical College in London.[1] In 1946 he joined the Scarborough and District Archaeological Society where he met William Lamplough. Between 1948 and 1961, Lamplough and Lidster undertook rescue excavations of thirty-seven[1] barrows in the North York Moors;[2][3][4] the artefacts from which are now in the Yorkshire Museum.[5] Lidster created detailed paintings of the landscapes in which the barrows are situated.[6] He and William Lamplough also led excavations for the Scarborough and District Archaeological Society in 1951 at the site of King Alfred's Cave (Ebberston, North Yorkshire).[7][8]

Lidster acted as the first secretary of the recently founded Scarborough Geological Society in the 1950s

In 1950, Lidster worked as a technician and, later, as the Assistant Curator of the Wood End Museum in Scarborough.[1] In 1955 he moved to Doncaster Museum as Assistant Curator. He was later Keeper of the museum, a position he left in 1966–7.[1]

Cantley Kilns

Whilst working in Doncaster, in 1959, Lidster investigated the Roman kilns site at Cantley.[9] The diagrams produced by Lidster of the Cantley kilns were used in 1962 as the basis for an experimental archaeology project to reconstruct and fire a replica of Cantley Kiln 31.[10]
