We are delighted that Roger will be available from 6pm on Tuesday 12th November to discuss his project and book - the Bruton Abbey.
The book charts the historical, political and religious significance of the land at King’s Bruton. Filled with detailed knowledge of the archaeological digs on Abbey Field and the significance of Bruton Abbey, it is an interesting read. The booklet can be purchased here. All proceeds will go to King’s Bruton.
On Monday 20th May, Dolphin editors Winnie (L6th Form, Wellesley House) and Sebastian (L6th Form, New House) had the pleasure of recording an interview with Roger Gallannaugh, architect, ex-governor and Old-Brutonian about his new book 'The Bruton Abbey Project - Twelve Years of Research'.
The video interview outlines the Bruton Abbey excavation project, which Roger headed up and ‘dives deep’ into Roger’s publication, as he talks us through each element of the project. We hear about implications and challenges, the logistics and findings of the dig, the history of Bruton as well as future matters regarding the research. The interview provides a great outline of the entire project as well as the context surrounding it, looking at the geology, history, politics and religious situation surrounding the various usage of the site as well as the research itself.
Please register if you would like to attend on November 12th.
The Old Brutonian AGM will follow at 7pm. All OBs and Hon OBs are warmly welcomed to stay for the AGM, which will be followed by drinks and refreshments.
