Abstract: |
The Centre of Archaeology was commissioned in January 2015 by the St Giles Community Heritage Project, to undertake archaeological investigations in advance of the redevelopment of the church graveyard. The aim of these investigations was to archaeologically observe the removal of a large 19th century spoil mound and to undertake an associated community heritage project around this. In removing the mound archaeologically it has been possible to recover and interpret a large amount of artefactual information. This has been supplemented by the discovery of in situ inhumation burials, burial cuts, a brick crypt structure, foundation trenches and additional evidence. It has become clear through analysis of the recovered evidence that the documentary sources are largely accurate and can be supported by the archaeology. |
