Shocking! 300 Skeletons Discovered Under Tent in Wales as Excavation Concludes!!!
More than 300 bodies have been found buried in a large Welsh warehouse. Dyfed Archaeological Trust confirmed it had uncovered 307 graves during excavation work at the former Ocky White warehouse in Haverfordwest town centre. This comes as the trust prepares to wind down operations in what has become one of the most comprehensive archaeological digs in the town in its history.
Dyfed Archaeological Trust first discovered evidence of 700-year-old relics and human remains in March this year, during initial preparatory work for a multi-million-person regeneration project in Haverfordwest. Work was suspended to allow archaeologists access to the site for a thorough excavation.
The trust has finally completed its excavations at the site on the city’s Bridge Street, where it has discovered 307 skeletons, half of which belong to children. It has also revealed details of what experts believe to be a crushed plate and a crushed chalice beneath the grave, both buried on the heads of a person.
The demolished warehouses in Haverfordwest are believed to be the site of St Saviour’s Priory, which was founded by a Sunday order of monks in around 1256. But many of the bodies found there are battle-scarred. The remains of hundreds of human bodies are thought to be linked to an attack by Welsh rebel leader Owai Glypwr in 1405. Site supervisor Aпdrew Shobbrook, of the Dyfed Archaeological Trust, said information gleaned from the excavation, which has lasted more than six months, will be valuable in painting a picture of Haverfordwest’s past.
