Mount Grace Priory (in OpenSim)

MOUNT GRACE PRIORY

This is a 4-sim simulation of a 15th Century Carthusian Priory, reconstructed as it was then using site plans and architectural drawings obtained from English Heritage, the UK’s historic monuments heritage protection organisation.

Use the LM to go to the Briefing Area and read the briefing notes in English and French; and then click on the onward link in the corner to start your tour at ground level.

As you explore, click on the Information Stones to receive bilingual notes and illustrations about 15th Century life. You can cut-and-paste these to your hard disc if you want to print out an illustrated brochure as a record of your visit.

For more details, including links to two Powerpoint shows held in Dropbox, (one describes the simulation, and the other provides details of how it was constructed), please contact either

Christi Maeterlinck in Second Life; or

Christii Maeterlinck (note the two ‘is’) in the Science Circle grid, or Opensim generally.

Note: Make sure you have an OpenSim account and avatar ready, days before the field trip. Starting this process on the day itself does not guarantee access!
