The town in medieval Ireland in the light of recent archaeological excavations

2020
Books, Manuscripts
Some of the papers provide a fascinating synopsis of the results of excavations and surveys at towns such as Castledermot, Enniscorthy, Inistioge, Navan, New Ross and Wexford. Others focus on research carried out at a particular site or building within a key medieval town (Carlow, Drogheda, Ferns, Kildare, Kilkenny, Kilmallock and Mullingar). Less-well-known deserted medieval settlements on the shores of Lough Key and Lough Ree (Co. Roscommon) are showcased in two further contributions, while there are also papers on Ardreigh, Athy, Dungarvan and Fethard, and an essay looking at the broader picture of the European Historic Towns Atlas project and archaeology.
