Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Barking was major nunnery, founded in 666 and surviving albeit in reduced circumstances until the Dissolution. Excavation revealed evidence for the Saxon period of activity. Considerable evidence for spinning and weaving cloth was associated with this phase. The most important structural find of this date was a horizontally mounted wheel which would have driven a mill. A glass kiln was also found. It is suggested that these were not part of the nunnery, but the remains of industries which existed to serve the nunnery. | |||||
