TitleRudston barrow LXII: the 1968 excavation
Date1972
DescriptionA report on excavations carried out in 1968
AbstractThis barrow was first excavated by Canon Greenwell in 1869. Since then it has been ploughed continuously and in 1960 Messrs C And E Grantham of Driffield investigated the area and found flint implement, as well as sherds of Neolithic pottery, on or near the surface. In 1968 the barrow was still visible though ploughing was rapidly reducing it. Excavation was becoming a matter of urgency because of the plough-damage and, as it was a scheduled monument, a rescure excavation was organised by the Ministr of Public Building Works supervised by the author for four weeks in September and October 1968
