Description

An archaeological evaluation was carried out in the graveyard to assess the site of a proposed meeting room that was to be linked to the north aisle. Two trenches were excavated by machine to a level where the cuts of the graves were visible. Hand excavated sondages were used to sample the graves to determine the depth of any articulated skeletons. The evaluation showed that there is a low potential for intact burials within a 1m depth of the proposed finished floor level. (S1).
