2500bc-14/1300bc Burial of a male c30-35 with a 'massive' skull associated with an Abercromby BC Beaker and a flint implement (a lance head or a knife). It was presumed the burial was originally covered by a barrow.
8/700bc-100bc Not far from the Beaker grave was found the inhumation burial of a female c16-17 in a probably contracted position, accompanied by a handmade (?)La Tene II urn by the right shoulder, head to north and face down.
