Cists were found in road construction in 1838 and in gravel-digging in 1852. Weathering of a pit-face in 1973 revealed at least three further cists of which two were examined and found to be slab-built, each containing an extended inhumation. In 1974, two more cists were dis-covered, one containing a child, and the other an extended inhumation.
