Summary

Early medieval (Jutish) inhumation burials with associated grave goods indicating a cemetery; found during work over several years from 1949-1955 in the area of Nethercourt Farm, St. Lawrence, Ramsgate. Though Nethercourt is perhaps better known for finds associated with the Prehistoric period, Bronze Age crouched burials have also been discovered there. The site is on the brow of a gentle west-facing slope, between 35-45m. The bedrock is chalk.
