Description
The main object was to ascertain, as far as possible, the extent and arrangement of the Priory church (of which the present parish church formed an aisle only) and of the Conventual buildings, as to which very little was known previously. It was hoped, too, that it m might be possible to ascertain the exact site of the tomb of Robert Lord Fitzwalter (died 1234), the position of which, in front of the high altar, is recorded.
