Narrative

    • A probable east-west aligned grave in the southern part of trench 2 (west). The top half of a skeleton (SK2184) was exposed but no more than this was revealed and the skeleton was not excavated. Similar to most graves in the vicinity, the feature exists within the disturbed layer 2164 (interpreted as a graveyard soil) with no distinct cut visible. It may therefore be broadly contemporary with these, but further excavation would be needed to confirm this. No direct relationships to other features were observed.
