Unlocking Essex's Past
http://unlockingessex.essexcc.gov.uk
All sorts of information about archaeological sites and historic buildings in Essex (including St Osyth) can be found on this Essex County Council website. Advanced search tools enable the user not only to find scheduled monuments in Essex but also to access aerial photos, virtual models and digital video as well as other information from the Sites and Monuments Record and elsewhere.
St Osyth's Priory
http://mspong.org/picturesque/osyth.html#priory
A labour of love, dedicated to his father, by Matthew Spong has placed this Victorian account of St Osyth's Priory on the web. It is just part of the book, Picturesque England: Its landmarks and historic haunts as described in lay and legend, song and story, compiled and edited by L Valentine and published by Frederick Warne & Co in 1894. The entire book, together with 140 or so wood engravings and a series of full-page coloured plates, has been put online here and is well worth browsing.
For other information on the periods covered by this programme, Time Team or archaeology in general, see Archaeology websites, our guide to some of the best information on the internet.
