Abstract: |
A pre-determination evaluation was undertaken to locate a burial ground associated with members of the Bucchanite sect who lived and were buried at Newhouse between 1808 and 1846.Three trenches were excavated and one, close to the north-west side of the house, exposed a shallow grave which had been truncated to the south by a service trench. The grave lay within the area of a small square enclosure shown on the Second Edition OS map. It is likely that much of the graveyard was destroyed by the construction of a 20th-century extension at the rear of Newhouse. |
