Abstract:
Interim report on a low mound at the landward edge of a fixed sand-dune system on the Castlemartin Army Training Estate, in the vicinity of which excavations had taken place in the 1880s, which had found a number of burials in stone coffins. The observation of human bone in the spoil from a badger set near the barrow led to a programme of badger exclusion followed by archaeological excavation, one aim of which was to assess the impact of burrowing animals and to trial exclusion methodologies. An early medieval cist-grave cemetery was uncovered comprising thirty burials of at least fifty-two individuals, in a mixture of cists, simple dug graves and disarticulated bone in small pits.
