Burial ground in Cappoge

Excavation (Licence no. 06E0288) was undertaken at the site in advance of the Premier Business Park development. Located to the SE was a much-disturbed burial ground. At least sixteen individuals were aligned E-W and enclosed by a deep ditch and orientated in a NE-SW direction, but only a short section of this ditch survived. Another burial was found c. 75m to the NE of the main burial-ground: that individual was facing southwards (McQuade 2009). Compiled by: Christine Baker Date of upload: 6 February 2015
