Burial ground

What is recorded here

In September 1986 human remains were discovered during digging on a farm. The remains consisted of human lower limbs representing at least three individuals. They appear to have been unaccompanied inhumations in unprotected pits. Two perforated scallop shells were also found in the disturbed topsoil indicating that burials took place here in the medieval period. Compiled by : Geraldine Stout Date of upload: 13 March 2013
