==Media appearances== In 2008, [[Channel 4]]'s [[archaeology]] series ''[[Time Team]]'' visited the island to carry out an investigation into its early Christian history. They excavated the sites of Christian chapels built on both the island and on the mainland opposite. During their dig they found the remains of a [[Benedictine]] [[chapel]] that was built in c.1139 by [[monk]]s from [[Glastonbury Abbey]], a [[reliquary]], graves and the remains of much earlier [[Romano-British|Anglo-Romano]] places of worship built of wood with dating evidence suggesting use by [[Christians]] before the reign of [[Constantine the Great]].<ref name="looe dig report" /> In 1994/95 [[Andrew Hugill]] composed ''Island Symphony'', an electro-acoustic piece utilising sampled sounds sourced over the net plus recorded natural sounds from the island itself.<ref>Dawe, Kevin (2004).
