Abstract:
This paper, which is based on a completed monograph written by Guy Grainger from notes and records by Christine Mahany, presents the results of an excavation in 1966 of Roman and Anglo-Saxon burials on the north side of the Roman defences of Great Casterton. The main conclusion is that Roman burials, in all probability, continue into the fifth century in an extensive area north of the walled town. At some stage in the later fifth century, Anglo-Saxon cremation burials were buried to the east, while somewhat later (where there is a relationship), Anglo-Saxon inhumation burials are also present.
