It was a joy to host! Our monastic roots are not so visible anymore, but far from forgotten.

I've been working on another early medieval building model. This time Fishamble Street in Dublin. The model is 1:72 scale, based on multiple buildings from the North end of Level 5 (of 14 levels). Based on coin evidence the levels start in the early tenth century #viking
Lunch is over and we're back again with Chris Coffey talking about a recent excavation on Bride St in the city centre. #fmd #medievaldublin
