Description

An archaeological watching brief was conducted during groundworks for underpinning works and the installation of two new soakaway pits at the Church of All Saints, Beckingham. The investigation revealed the structural foundations of the 14th century north and south aisles of the church. Parts of several articulated human burials were also recorded, along with a probable cist made from re-used late 18th century gravestones. Fragments of disarticulated human bone were also identified in the graveyard soil, along with a few pieces of pottery and tile of medieval to post-medieval date. {1}{2}
