The Afterlife of St Osmund: From Bishop to Saint, and from Old to New Sarum
Bishop Osmund of Salisbury died in 1099, after building a fine new cathedral in the late Anglo‐Saxon burh beside William I's new castle on top of the hill at ‘Old Sarum’. Only in the late twelfth century did St Osmund's cult get under way. This article follows the long drawn out story of his canonisation (finally achieved in 1457) and shrine construction in the magnificent new Salisbury cathedral. Although this shrine was destroyed in 1539, the o…

In March 2015, after a gap of over twenty-five years, the fourth volume of ‘The British Historic Towns Atlas’ on Windsor and Eton was published. This was a splendid series of coloured maps, a gazet
‘ Incomparabilissime Fabrice ’: The Architectural History of Salisbury Cathedral c . 1297 to 1548
Salisbury cathedral is usually seen as a ‘one period’ building, a ‘complete’ 13th-century cathedral. As a result, the later medieval work at Salisbury has rarely been considered in its own right. This neglect has been compounded by the subsequent loss of many of its most important elements: the two eastern chantry chapels, St Osmund’s shrine and half the library. The aim of this paper is to redress this imbalance. Salisbury’s original appearance …
The Date of the Cloister of Salisbury Cathedral
Salisbury Cathedral's cloister has received less scholarly attention than it merits. An important and outstanding issue is that of the structure's date. This has never been securely established, and there is no scholarly consensus on the matter. With reference to documentary and archaeological evidence, this article establishes unequivocally a documented start-date of after 15 June 1263 for the second stage of the project. In so doing it confirms…

The Quarrying and Distribution of Reigate Stone in the Middle Ages
Reigate stone was one of the most important building stones used in London and along the Thames littoral in the Middle Ages but, despite this, its use has been largely ignored by archaeologists. This introductory essay attempts to look at both the geology and documented history of the stone quarries, and at the Battersea and other Thames-side sites from which the stone was distributed

Westminster Abbey: Archaeological Recording at the West End of the Church
Recent recording work on the masonry of the West Front of Westminster Abbey is here described. The later medieval documentary evidence for the rebuilding of the western half of the nave (in the fourteenth, fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries) is also re-assessed and a new architectural history for the whole of the west end of the Abbey church is proposed. It is also suggested that the core of the lower fifty feet of the western towers dates f…
The Buildings and Topography of St Augustine's Abbey, Canterbury
The well-known site of St Augustine's Abbey in Canterbury has been uncovered in many intermittent campaigns, with most attention being paid to the Anglo-Saxon churches at the core of the site. This paper looks at the topography and buildings of the later medieval abbey in the light of new discoveries in the outer court area. Documentary sources and building stone are also surveyed
The Archbishop's Palace, Canterbury
The Archbishop's Palace in Canterbury, once the most important of all the Primate's palaces, was occupied from the 1080s until its demolition in c. 1650. A new smaller palace was then constructed in part of the ruins in 1899–1901. This has been used by twentieth-century archbishops ever since, largely as a ‘weekend palace’.With the arrival of Dr Robert Runcie as Archbishop in 1981, the Canterbury Archaeological Trust began work at the Archbishop'…
Building the tower and spire of Salisbury Cathedral
Although - or because - the 19th century saw great archaeological interest in the standing buildings of medieval England, the early legislation to protect British ancient monuments expressly excluded church buildings that were still in use. A new measure, just come into force, gives cathedral archaeology a formal place, and makes this a timely moment to see what kind of work which the archaeology of a standing cathedral can now amount to
The topography of Anglo-Saxon London
One of the few things to have remained very little changed in the City of London for nearly one thousand years was the position of most of its streets and lanes. Unfortunately this is no longer true, and in the past few decades large numbers of medieval streets have disappeared from the map for ever to be replaced by characterless dual-carriageways that now slice through the City. Not only do these new routes replace the earlier ones, but at the …
Crown-post and King-strut Roofs in South-East England
THREE MAJOR KING-STRUT ROOFS of 13th-century date in Canterbury are published for the first time, and a group of analogous roofs in SE. England is described. A related group of side-purlin roofs at Chichester and Bishop's Waltham is discussed, together with the known examples of crown-post roofs dating from before c. 1300. It is suggested that continental roof-types influenced the work at Canterbury and Chichester, and that the 13th-century crown…

The Roper Chantry in St. Dunstan's Church, Canterbury
In July 1978 the main burial vault of the Roper family in the medieval chantry chapel of St. Nicholas at St. Dunstan's church, Canterbury, was opened to enable a complete record of its contents to be made by members of the Canterbury Archaeological Trust. This marked the 500th anniversary of the birth of the martyr Sir Thomas More (related by marriage to the Roper family), whose head was believed to be contained in the vault
