GRADUATION SUCCESS FOR ‘MOSTYN PROJECT’ STUDENT

GRADUATION SUCCESS FOR ‘MOSTYN PROJECT’ STUDENT

Many congratulations to Dr Sam Garland who graduated at Bangor this summer after finalising his PhD project, which was based on the collection of manuscript newsletters sent to Sir Thomas Mostyn of Gloddaith in the late-17^th century.  Sam’s research formed part of the ‘Mostyn Project’, which aims to unlock the research potential of the collections generated by the Mostyn family and estate, over centuries. 

Sam undertook his doctorate within the School of History, Welsh History and Archaeology, under the supervision of Prof Tony Claydon.

His thesis is entitled ‘News in late-Seventeenth Century Britain’ and can be consulted in the University Library.  Further information on Sam’s research can be found in Issue 1 of the ISWE Newsletter. 

We wish Sam every success for the future.
