There was great excitement yesterday at St. Mary’s Abbey when the students discovered what they hope is the buried wall of Diramuid McMurrough’s 12th century Abbey and the cut of the possible 7th century enclosing ditch of St. Aidan’s.Within the same cutting! @IrishArchaeo #Ferns

Another super day on site in Ferns. There was great excitement on site yesterday when the @IrishArchaeo students found the corner of the cloister (?) wall, and defined the ditches in both cuttings. #medieval #archaeology #HistoricFerns #Wexford Ferns - Fearna MĂłr
