โœฆ Synopsis


The church and cemetery of St Margaret Fyebridgegate, Nowich were in use from AD 1245 to 1468. The cemetery was used to bury both the parishioners and hanged felons. On excavation, 52 group burials of various sizes were encountered, some containing prone individuals. Four hundred and thirteen inhumations have been examined, of which one-third had evidence of episodes of trauma. Comparison is made of the types of trauma present with evidence from the sites of the Blackfriars, lpswich and the Mary Rose. Evidence is presented for some possible activity-related trsuma at two of the sites.
