What is recorded here

An oval, earth-cut well (dims 1.42m; D 2.2m) containing silty sand that was closed with clay containing stone and slate was recorded in excavation (E002398). The skeletal remains of an adult male, who had suffered a traumatic death and can be dated to the 15th century, had slumped into the well through the collapse of its sides. Three other truncated inhumations were recorded in the vicinity. (Seaver 2011) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 17 February, 2015 Amended: 11 August 2023
