The late Professor Colin Platt (who directed the 1960's dig at Brimham) was my tutor at Southampton University. He was a great bloke and became a good friend. He told me that many of the archives from his 60's digs in Yorkshire were lost after being damaged by a flood in the stores at the University of Leeds. Hence there only being a few remaining photos.

This is where digging at all is bad. An ancient structure is dug up and destroyed. Notes are made and then lost by one means or another. Not digging would mean the remains were still available for the future. All the time in Time Team we are told of previous digs but little to no information. The more you dig the more you lose.

Oh my, Matt is exhausting himself with this way of scything. It's supposed to be done while standing upright, moving one's two arms in such a balanced way, that the scythe moves in a smooth half-circle around one's body without bending over. It takes practice, and once it's done in the proper position, it's almost like dancing. It's a meditative sort of job, and a rewarding one too!

And I remember the lay brothers at the Catholic College I attended here in the USA, who ran the college farm and the book bindery in the library, thus I already knew of their life of work and daily prayers.

I cycle this area regularly when the weather permits and am regularly finding links to Fountains Abbey. Like tracks over fields that monks will have walked. Buildings linked to it and the big fish pond behind How Hill tower on the Sawley estate that must have been the main fish pond for Fountains Abbey. There's a house in nearby Shaw Mills on Law lane that is linked and I haven't researched as yet but there are paths across the fields that link to the abbey. But my biggest find is unproven. From one entrance to the grounds there are comfrey plants running all the way back to How Hill. Monks made much use of this very useful plant and I can imagine them walking between the Abbey round to the fish pond planting bits of comfrey root on the way. There are also many many comfrey plants along the roads around nearby Markington which is also close and old enough to be linked.

That's how a lot of buildings were built, it's why you usually only find the foundations of old buildings instead of piles of stone where the walls were. You think about how much labor it took to quarry, cut and dress those blocks by hand, with nothing but hammers and wedges (even with almost free labor), it represents a huge expense. Cut stone was very valuable stuff, so they would reuse it whenever possible.

My uncle is a monk. He was raised on a farm and he is familiar with hard physical labor. In his monastery there's no way he would become a priest - he hasn't got the educational background or academic ability for that. Likewise, he's not suited to management or research or writing books. He IS suited to farm work and the kind of labor that is required for the monastery to be not only self-sufficient for their own food, but able to earn money by the products they produce. He and other monks like him are absolutely vital to the monastery. They are not second-class and they don't live an awful life. All the monks follow a rule of life in which they must stop at intervals throughout the day for prayer, recreation and rest. It is in fact a very balanced life, spiritually, physically and intellectually. Monks tend to be more healthy than the general population, have much lower levels of mental illness and to live longer. Just because the monks they are researching were medieval and had to do manual lab or without modern equipment, remember that there were hundreds of lay brothers and they could easily manage the tasks of running the monastery. My uncle has an identical twin who married, worked for a living, raised his own and some adopted children and fostered many children with his wife. The brother who is a monk looks a good 20 years younger than his identical twin who lives 'in the world.'

There's purity in farm work. It's drawn men like your uncle to lay brotherhood for centuries. If he's one of those Belgian chappies, tell him I say thank you for the delicious beer and cheeses that make their way to the USA. I'm both happy and proud to support monks work by buying their products. Precious rare commodities here in the states. And honestly some of the absolute most delicious cheeses I've ever eaten in my life and I managed a deli for six years lol.

@@kimberleyfallon9661 Oh gosh I remember that episode, (couldn't forget it!.) I really felt for the poor young guy, you could see him struggle to get through his ordeal. It showed how brutal life was back then. Didn't he have to break rocks/stones? I recall a mini mountain of rocks (?) outside his cell, that he had to break, for about 12 hours a day & then was given a bowl of gruel as his main meal (?). Also no one was allowed to talk or engage with him, except for the prison guard, (screw), who would bark his orders & do the prison drill, etc. Talk about a memorable episode, I wonder how he feels about his experiences, now, over 20 odd years later? !

Poor Matt. Imagine being a trained archaeologist, getting the chance of a lifetime to work with Time Team (which funded more digs than most universities in the UK combined), and then being interrupted in the middle of your dig to go LARP as a monk!

I can't imagine this wasn't planned in advance. The producers usually had a script. They would make sure to have someone available to do the experimental archeology/reemactment on the actual film days.
