What is recorded here

The OS Letters in 1837 describe a monastery (DU022-025001-) and graveyard (Herity 2002, 36). In 1990 proposed development on the periphery of this site necessitated the archaeological clearance of the areas to the north, east and south (licence no. E000586). No features were encountered and the only finds of archaeological interest were two sherds of Sgraffitto-type pottery, and a portion of a large quernstone. In the absence of evidence for enclosure or burial in the extensive areas examined, it remains doubtful whether this was ever a graveyard here (Swan 1991, 27).
