2008 Whithorn Priory Archaeological Inverstigations

Intangible Heritage

In 1995-6 York Archaeological Trust undertook two seasons of excavation at Fey Field Whithorn, directed by A. Clarke. The excavations uncovered the remains that were largely of 6th to 10 th century date and related to the important early-medieval monastery at the site. The excavations, the post-excavation work and the production of this web-based publication were all generously funded by the Whithorn Trust. This Pdf report represents a copy of a report which was designed as an interactive web report that was originally hosted on York Archaeological Trust’s website. Due to changes in the design of this website the original interactive report is no longer available. This Pdf was produced to ensure that the information held in the original report remained widely available. As the original report was designed for web-viewing, its’ design did not follow conventional publication formats. There were some problems when converting the web information into this Pdf, notably with the figures, which though perfectly clear when viewed on the web are slightly blurred when transferred into Pdf format. In addition, there are no Plate numbers in the text, as the photographs were originally simply embedded in the web-text at the relevant point. This Pdf follows the layout of the original web report exactly, and readers should bear these limitations in mind while reading the report.
