Full Description
Bones were found protruding from a newly eroded section of cliff face near the NW tower of the ruined church of Reculver. (TR 26 NW 2) Referred to as the church of St. Egbert in this report. Osteological analysis revealed that a total of 3 individuals had been found: an adult, a juvenile and a child. It seems likely that the remains belonged to a cemetery associated with the church, the eroding cliff has resulted in a number of bones being displaced and strewn down the abraded cliff face. An early date is unlikely as the find spot was within the internal confines of the RO barracks, tradition dictates that burials are located outside occupied areas. Additional ref to trading links (1). Additional ref in context with other Minsters in the region (2). Additional bibliogrpahic references (3-34). Photographs (35-73 ) and charts (74-75).
