What is recorded here

In 1967 an inhumation burial was discovered while digging sand near Skreen. It lies in a curved extension of an esker that loops around a church (ME032-074----). According to Rynne, the general size of the bones would indicate that they were those of a young adult (Cahill & Sikora 2011, vol 2, 387-388).

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record ME032-070
