Abstract: |
During the course of the evaluation two heavily truncated cremations, one of which included the fragmented base of a cremation urn, were recorded. The cremations were left in situ, covered by a thin layer of sand. The presence of undated 'ploughmarks' in the Forest Marble indicated that the area had been subject to ploughing, which may have accounted for the absence of further cremations. A number of post-medieval features were recorded across the site including service trenches, pathways and possible linear features of unknown function. [Au(abr)] |
