Phase I Investigations at Priest Point 18ST87, St. Inigoes MD (1992.019)

Summary

In 1983, a phase I archaeological investigation was conducted on the site known as Priest Point, a former 18th century manor house associated with the Jesuit occupation of St. Inigoes Manor. This site is also located in St. Inigoes Maryland and currently the site of the Naval Electronics Systems Engineering Activity, then a 800-acre facility. The project area was approximately 350 ft by 150 ft, and comprised the area wherein the Navy was planning to construct a new sewage treatment plant. The fieldwork resulted in the creation of site bounds, preliminary excavation of the manor ruins, and recommendations for construction plans.
