St Mary's Church, Great Abington, Cambridgeshire. Archaeological Monitoring

An archaeological investigation was conducted within the churchyard of St Mary's Church, Great Abington, Cambridgeshire, in advance of the construction of a new north porch. A total of twenty-seven articulated inhumations were encountered. The grave earliest of these interments had been lined with stone and is likely to be Late Saxon in date. The churchyard subsequently remained in use until the late 19th century, and burials dating from most of this intervening period are also represented
