Monument record TR 36 SW 73 - Bronze Age/early Iron Age crouched inhumation burial, Minster
Summary
A Bronze Age crouched burial was previously found near the Monkton road close to Hoo. A large quantity of flint nodules and some worked flints were found beneath and surrounding the skeleton. The fill of the grave contained fragments of burnt flint and flint tempered pottery sherds similar in form to types from the late Bronze Age or early Iron Age. The materials recovered from the fill of the burial feature are thought to be midden material from a suspected nearby settlement.
