Abstract: |
A total of sixty seven individuals were recovered during archaeological fieldwork at St Andrew's Church Thursby. The assemblage corresponded with a largely mature adult group, from a relatively affluent social profile but probably beneath the gentry in terms of social class, who had died during the later 18th and early 19th centuries. It was not possible to deduce kin groups although it is highly likely that such affinity existed. There was little direct evidence for pre-eighteenth century activity either structurally or defined by burial practice due to the mitigation strategy implemented. Such deposits would have been present, albeit heavily truncated by later development and burial. |
