Three MOLA monographs

22 March 2011

Three fantastic new MOLA books have just arrived back from the printers.

The Cistercian abbey of St Mary Graces, East Smithfield, London presents the results of large-scale excavation of the last and relatively short-lived Cistercian house to be built in England before the Dissolution.

Three Ways Wharf, Uxbridge: A Lateglacial and Early Holocene hunter-gatherer site in the Colne valley reports on a series of five in situ lithic and faunal scatters belonging to two main phases of hunter-gatherer activity. The earlier, characterised by Lateglacial bruised-edge ‘long blades’ associated with reindeer and horse, is dated to c 10,000 BP. The succeeding Early Mesolithic phase with broad, obliquely-backed flint points predominantly associated with red and roe deer, is dated at c 9,200 BP.

The development of early medieval and later Poultry and Cheapside: Excavations at 1 Poultry and vicinity, City of London presents the evidence for Late Saxon, medieval and post-medieval development at 1 Poultry and vicinity from one of the largest excavations in the heart of the Roman and medieval city.
