During archaeological test-trenching in advance of a housing development, a pit (c. 0.35m x 0.25m; D 0.15m) was discovered. The pit contained a dark charcoal-rich fill with inclusions of cremated bone. The eastern side and base of the pit appeared to be delineated by two relatively flat pieces of limestone. The pit shares similar characteristics with two other pit-burials (CO087-138----; CO087-140----) found in the vicinity. (Sherlock 2002, 9-10)
