Full Description
Site of a short cist, aligned east-west. Only the east end slab and two small slabs forming part of north and south sides were in position. The north slab had fallen in antiquity and smashed a beaker. The body lay on its right side with the head at the west end, and is probably that of an adult female. A smashed beaker, three thumbnail scrapers, three flint knives and two flint flakes were found on the sandy floor.
