A few fragments of the skull and maxilla were all that remained of an inhumation in situ. Bones from the upper part of the body, including more of the skull and fragments of mandible, were recovered unstratified in the spoil close to the stratified fragments. Together these clearly represent the partial remains of a small adult who had been buried in a shallow grave. The inhumation had been orientated east-west with the head to the west. The fragment of skull lay on its side indicating that the head had been tilted to the south.<1>

This inhumation is a quite significant discovery by virtue of its location. The base of the skull is 800mm below the threshold of the door to the tower of Holy Trinity Church showing that the depth at which the inhumation was found is compatible with an inhumation in the churchyard. More importantly, if dated this would provide a terminus post quem for the creation of Trinity Street. The part of Culver Street immediately west of Trinity Street was widened in 1947 with the demolition of 1 Trinity Street.<2> Thus, although the inhumation was found under the junction of Culver Street and Trinity Street, prior to 1947 it lay under the north end of Trinity Street and clear of Culver Street. The location of the inhumation thus suggests that the cemetery of Holy Trinity was created by sacrificing the western part of the church graveyard.<1>
