Abstract: |
In January 2012 a watching brief was carried out the Church of St Peter, Church Lane, Wrestlingworth, Bedfordshire during the improvements to the surface water drainage. The work uncovered nine articulated/partially articulated Christian burials. Five of which was preserved in-situ, whilst the remaining four were fully excavated and a rapid analysis carried out. Moderate levels of disarticulated human remains, and two disarticulated skulls were also uncovered. The works revealed no evidence for earlier church foundations or any further evidence to increase our understanding of the west tower. |
