The photographs "show the scale of the priory complex," destroyed following the dissolution of the monasteries, said Mr Williams."He tried to preserve the history of the city before we did archaeology in a big official way, before it became as important as we regard it today," he added. There was little organisation in the city at the time "that could bring pressure to bear to make sure our archaeological sites were properly examined," added Dr Ben Kyneswood, director of the Coventry University initiative.
"What I like about these photographs is they give you a real sense that there is archaeology there, going back a thousand years, nearly, and I'd never seen that before."Image source,
