A Christian grave-slab, with Anglian leaf scrolls and early type, but distinctly Norse, dragon, dating from soon after AD 950 or 960, (W G Collingwood 1921) which is set up over the door of Wamphray Church, (RCAHMS 1920) clearly 'indicates that some Norse settler, obviously a man of substance and local position, was given Christian burial near here.'
