  • A FURTHER FIND of EDWARD PENNIES at NEATH ABBEY In
    A FURTHER FIND OF EDWARD PENNIES AT NEATH ABBEY By R. H. M. DOLLEY In November 1956 a small hoard of exactly 100 silver pence of the late thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries was found in the course of Ministry of Works maintenance work on the western range of the monastic buildings at Neath Abbey. An earlier paper has suggested, it is hoped convincingly, that the concealment of the hoard is to be associated with the search for the fugitive Edward II who was arrested at Neath in the late autumn of 1326.1 Early in April 1957 in the course of further works there was discovered a second hoard, this time of 66 coins, concealed in a "putlog" hole of the vault at a slightly lower level and some three feet away from the cache which had contained the original parcel. Again there is no trace of a container, and the archaeological evidence is that the two groups of coins had been con- cealed in separate hiding-places at about the same time. A detailed study of the coins favours this hypothesis, and in the paper that follows it is hoped to demonstrate that the weight of the evidence suggests very strongly that the two parcels had been concealed by the same individual on the same occasion. At an inquest held in June a further verdict of treasure trove was returned. The finders have received the full market value of the hoard which has been acquired by the National Museum of Wales. The 66 coins, again all silver pennies, may be listed as follows.

    Goldies WW1 project wins the Education Category in the 2018 National Lottery Awards Welsh singing sensation Katherine Jenkins OBE surprised Cardiff-based project, Armistice Cantata, on September 12th, with the news that they had won Best Education Project in the National Lottery Awards 2018. The mezzo soprano broke the news of the win to pupils at Thornhill Primary School in Cardiff, who piloted the intergenerational education project with Goldies charity founder Grenville Jones which commemorates the Centenary of the end of WW1 (November 11 2018)! The National Lottery Awards are the annual search for the UK’s favourite Lottery-funded projects and celebrate the inspirational people and projects who do extraordinary things with National Lottery funding. Marking 100 years since the end of the Great War (November 11 2018), Armistice Cantata is part of a two- year intergenerational education project led by Grenville and his Goldies charity that encourages primary schools to open their doors to older people. As part of the programme, from Goldies Cymru – which helps older people get involved in music through daytime FUN Songs and Smiles – teamed up with youngsters from Thornhill Primary school in Cardiff who have written a musical to celebrate the end of World War One. The children from Thornhill Primary appear on stage together in a 30-minute production, named Armistice Cantata. The musical – which includes popular songs from World War One – is now being rolled out to a number of schools across England and Wales. More than 7,000 children and 800 older people from the Goldies charity are taking part.
