Abstract: |
A series of Archaeological Investigations were carried out at the site of Littlemore Priory, later known as Minchery Farm, located at Littlemore. The Priory was known to have been founded by a Robert de Sandford. The excavations managed to identify a general plan of the church and indicate roughly where other buildings would have been located. Some 92 burials were recovered from the site, which represents one of the few collections of remains from a small English nunnery and thus for aspects of medieval gender studies and social attitudes the remains are important. The site has also produced a significant amount of glazed medieval tile |
