Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
On the 12th June 1496, John Alcock, Bishop of Ely founded what was later to be renamed Jesus College on the site of a nunnery dedicated to St Mary and St Radegund which was originally built by Nigellus, second Bishop of Ely, c. 1138. There is some debate as to whether much of the original fabric of the early nunnery was demolished or incorporated into new structures. Excavation would appear to point to substantial demolition of the original more complicated sequence of nunnery buildings. Also noted is the lavish decoration of certain rooms which may indicate that the design of early colleges originates in manor houses and palaces and not ecclesiastical institutions. The ecclesiastical buildings, particularly the church, are discussed in their urban context. There are separate sections on: `Historical outline' by the authors and J M Renfrew (92--5); `The Master's Lodge viewing niche' by the authors and C Begg (128); and `The Master's Garden burials by the authors, K Gdaniec & J Miller (140). | ||
