Description
An excavation was carried out in advance of reflooring in the nave at the Church of St Oswald, Rand. The excavations revealed a number of different building phases, and suggested the existence of an earlier church on the site, dating from the 11th century. Two burials were also found, pre-dating this earlier structure, and suggesting the burial ground in this area had even earlier origins. {1}
