Abstract:
Reviews the find of an abecediary from business premises built on the site of the Church of St Mary of the Grey Friars on Castle Street in the 1960s. The piece of red sandstone is inscribed with the first seven letters of the alphabet in Lombardic script which dates it to the 1260s. Also discusses a piece of granite which formed part of a kerb until its removal in the late 1950s or early 1960s which is also inscribed with Lombardic script and is thought to have come from St Gregory's Ludgeing in Queensberry Square and Munches Street.
