A Beaker Interment on Stockbridge Down, Hampshire, and its Cultural Connexions

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  08 January 2012

Extract

The archaeology of Stockbridge Down owes much to the interest of the late Colonel Sir Norman Gray Hill, Bt., M.C., M.B., who was killed in an aeroplane accident in 1944. This piece of downland, recently presented to the National Trust by Miss Rosalind Hill, has, as a result, yielded information of outstanding interest, and it remains for the present writer, who was associated with the work, to record his last find, a Beaker burial at the spot marked y on the sketch-map (fig. 1).
