Holywell Priory and the development of Shoreditch to c1600: Archaeology from the London Overground East London Line
No full textThe upgrade and extension of the East London Line created an opportunity for archaeologists to discover more about Shoreditch. Archaeological investigations followed the proposed route and this volume examines the landscapes concealed beneath modern-day Shoreditch. Roman burials were discovered here, close to Ermine Street. The area was transformed in the 1150s by the foundation of Augustinian Holywell Priory, west of what is now Shoreditch High Street. Holywell was the ninth richest nunnery in England at the Dissolution. Sir Thomas Lovell established a residence within its precinct and was buried in the priory church in 1524; other mansions were constructed to the east. Properties associated with the former religious precincts defined the early London suburbs
The Cluniac priory and abbey of St Saviour Bermondsey, Surrey: excavations 1984-95
No full textBermondsey Priory was founded on the south bank of the Thames, across the river from the White Tower, in the 1080s. Bermondsey became a centre of pilgrimage and in 1399 the priory’s status was raised to that of an abbey, before its transformation in the 16th century into a courtier’s mansion. The results of modern excavation of the eastern parts of the church, cloister and inner court, and the monastic cemetery are complemented by documentary research and an extensive 19th-century survey of the abbey, providing a detailed picture of the 12th-century building programme and subsequent expansion and remodelling. Also examined are the monastery’s Anglo-Saxon antecedents and the Tudor mansion which succeeded it
