Full Description
Cinerary urns. Five or six urns found some time before 1845 whilst ditching. They contained a few bones and were of rough construction except one, which is said to have been well-shaped, ornamented with diagonal lines crossing each other, and surmounted by a lid and handle. Ditch where found can still be seen but no trace of any antiquity.
