(4) NS 0968. In 1836 an unusual setting was found in the general area of Ardyne Point; a saucer-shaped setting of beach boulders 1.5m in diameter had at its centre an upright clay 'urn' about 0.15m in height 'containing a quantity of black ashes'. The vessel is described as having nearly perpendicular sides 'and round its upper edge was a circular moulding'; it was surrounded by three upright flat slabs (Roger 1859, 253).
