About the book >.>.> The remains of St Frideswide's Priory have received the detailed attention of architectural historians from J.C. Buckler onwards, but have been little discussed in print. Buckler's voluminous notes and sketches of the 1870s have remained unpublished, as have David Sturdy's 1963 excavation and Richard Halsey's comprehensive analysis of the Romanesque building. In 1985, Christopher Scull's excavation in the cloister provided the occasion and the stimulus to bring this material together to form, in conjunction with other studies, an integrated series of reports presenting the data which has been gathered to date and the hypotheses which have been formulated. These papers are the result of collaboration and fruitful dialogue between the main contributors; the numerous cross-references demonstrate how much they have enriched each other. Nonetheless, they offer diverse and sometimes conflicting interpretations. While a broad consensus has emerged as to the Romanesque phases and the development of the north-eastern chapel. Artikel-Nr.
