For the last couple of days I have been digging on a new site - an Anglo-Norman village near Athy. It is probably late 13th century village. It is possible that the village was destroyed during the Scottish king - Robert De Bruce’s invasion of Ireland. Among the pieces of bones and pottery, there is one extraordinary find - a penny coin of Edward 1st (Longshanks), who ruled England between 1272-1307
