Abstract: |
A watching brief carried out during the laying on new electrical cables for lighting within the churchyard. The church dates to the Norman period and the graveyard has been used for burials since the Medieval period. No known graves were disturbed but some human bone was recovered from the trench line. This had been previously distrubed and the bones were reburied after the trench had been dug. A large iron key and a metal coffin handle was also recovered and was taken for analysis. |
