Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
An account of the surviving remains is presented. Very little survives above ground: sites include the Franciscan house at Inverkeithing, the Dominican house at St Andrew's and the Carmelite one at South Queensferry. The excavations at Aberdeen, Perth and Linlithgow were exploring unknown territory as virtually nothing was known of the Carmelites in Scotland. A composite illustration shows the state of knowledge of the Scottish Whitefriars convents at the time of writing. It is clear that the one common factor which defines Scottish Carmelite friaries is the simple church building, aligned E-W, tending to be long and narrow and aisleless. The accepted arrangement of the domestic and administrative buildings of the friary was a series of structures situated around one or more courtyards or cloisters, most commonly S of the church. At Aberdeen, Linlithgow and Perth there is evidence of burials within churches, within the cloister (at Linlithgow) and in an external cemetery to the N and E of the church at Linlithgow. Other areas of the friary precinct, neither occupied by buildings nor cemetery, would have been utilised as open land, possibly cultivated, or as gardens or orchards. | |||||||||||||
