What is recorded here

These burials were first uncovered in 1892 during the quarrying of a sand and gravel ridge (NMI 1892:48). The remains comprised a burial with a bowl food vessel and an uncontexted vase food vessel. In 1898 there were further discoveries of two cists with two pit burials and two other possible pit burials (Plunkett 1898-190, 388). One contained an urn, the other a food vessel/urn (Waddell 1970, 116; 1990, 83). There is a development on the site. Compiled by Geraldine Stout
