Extract

Recent excavations made within the church of St. Bartholomew the Great, exposing the sites of the first Lady chapel and of the south side chapel, have thrown new light on the plan of Rahere's church; and excavations on the south side of the church have uncovered the foundations of the sacristy, chapter-house, and the Prior's house. The object of this paper is to lay the results of these excavations before the Society.
