Description

Cremation grave group found close to Longinus's Tombstone in Beverley Road. At one time thought to be the associated burial but there is no evidence for this. Three vessels of form 278 were recovered, two of which were found in 1928 (COLEM 1928.259) and a third which may possibly have stood apart from the others found in 1934 (See ECC2430).
