Abstract: |
A total of 56 graves were identified during the work of which 19 were excavated and lifted due to being threatened by further groundworks. Sherds of medieval pottery were recorded from the subsoil, and buttons were found in one grave. A number of graves contained iron nail fittings which are probably the remains of coffins. The coffins that were found were heavily rotten and fragments of metal were found around them in the form of handles and in the case of grave 6 the remains of a plaque, however it was not possible to identify the occupant. All bones were returned to the church for reburial. |
