Abstract:
Three small trenches were excavated at Dryburgh Abbey, one just inside the nave near the west door (NT 5912 3170) and two at the far west end of the Abbey grounds, near the River Tweed (NT 5901 3173). The two trenches in the grounds were for the relocation of a bench, while the trench in the nave was a shallow excavation to allow the placement of slabs in an area of erosion next to a notice board. There was nothing of significance seen in the first two, but in the nave trench, human remains were found. This burial had been disturbed previously, but both sides of a pelvis in good condition and traces of the coccyx and the base of the spine were still in situ. Bones found in overlying deposits were replaced and the trench backfilled.
