Full Description
1950s or 1960s. Surface finds, ploughed up.
Towards south end of field, south of cropmark of enclosure 18125.
About 25 human skulls in a line.
A. Gregory (NCM), 10 March 1983.
Finder now states he found the skulls actually inside the cropmark, but this was after he had been told the mark might be a churchyard, and so should be treated with caution.
Information from A. Gregory (NCM) to E. Rose (NAU), May 1983.
