Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on behalf of the Parochial Church Council at St Nicholas' Church, Condicote, Gloucestershire (NGR SP 1517 2834). During the underpinning of the vestry five skeletons were excavated. Four were fully excavated; one was partially excavated. Three were determined to be prepubescent; one was an older juvenile or adult, the last was an adult, possibly male. Due to the nature of the excavations and the lack of any dateable finds it is not possible to assign an accurate date to the inhumations, other than to say that they probably all predate the construction of the vestry in 1888. There was no evidence for coffins, while the size and shape of the grave cuts, where visible, indicate that coffins were not used. No other archaeological deposits were observed. |
