Abstract:
An area 64m sq. was opened in a field east of the village of Ludford. The area was centred on the location of two lead coffins discovered some weeks earlier by members of the public using metal detectors. The two coffins were excavated and thier contents removed, although logistics dictated that the coffins themselves had to remian in situ. A third burial was excavated adjacent to the coffins, and several other graves were identified leading to the conclusion the this area was part of a larger Roman period cemetery attached to a large settlement situated north and east of the site. A second 16 m sq. area was opened north-east of the coffins in an attempt to locate the position of a lead tank removed earlier by metal detectorists. Althouh unscuessful, this excavation did uncover a large pit of mid to late 3rd centruy date which contained large quantiites of apparently domestic refuse. [Au]
