| Abstract: |
NS 739540/740538. Exiguous field notes, contemporary newspaper articles and a confused published report were used to reconstruct the excavation of a small cemetery in 1936 and 1939. The burials comprised four inhumation cists, four urned cremations and a simple inhumation. Artefacts included a Beaker decorated with fingernail impressions, at least three Food Vessels, an Enlarged Food Vessel, an 'Encrusted' Urn, a Cordoned Urn containing an archer's bracer, some fabric woven from vegetable fibre, and a cist-slab decorated in 'passage-grave' style.
