2500bc-14/1300bc | Within the defences of a defended enclosure of uncertain age, there was a circular stone cairn. This covered two apparent cremation deposits, one accompanied by a bronze dagger, at least two cinerary urns (one of impressed cord decoration), and some worked flints. There were no cists. The record does not well describe the precise associations. |
