Interpretation

    • Fill of grave cut [4648], contains SK.4649, fill likely the result of intentional backfill of grave after body placed into grave. Contained some large rubble - Likley from the Roman building east of the grave. Some tegula also found within fill & a large nail - possibly roof tile nail? Disturbed by plough scars.
