Full Description
In 1995 an evaluation was done by Wessex Archaeology at the Weatherlees Waste Treatment Works. A sheep and horse burial were both found, however the horse was assumed to be a modern burial. The burial of the sheep produced three sherds of Early/Middle Iron Age pottery from the area around the burial. It is thought the burial was heavily disturbed by ploughing and the bones could not be seen in a cut. (1)
