Abstract: |
A survey of the priory site, straddling the River Nar, revealed extensive earthworks, including the fallen masonry of the church and conventual buildings, part-surviving outer buildings, the precinct wall, fishponds, enclosures and a roadline within the precinct. The valley floor was shown to contain extensive evidence of multi-period water management. A possible Iron Age square barrow was identified toward the south-east of the precinct. [Au] |
