    • Abstract:
      M/1992/43/2. This burnt human bone is part of a collection of several Anglo-Saxon objects which were found by workmen when they were building Edridge Road in Croydon, between February 1893 and September 1894. Some of the objects were given to the old Grangewood Museum in Croydon and are now looked after by Croydon Museum Service. The rest were given to the British Museum. These human remains were found inside a cremation urn (Museum reference number M/1992/1). They were buried between 1600 and 1300 years ago, when Edridge Road was the site of an Anglo-Saxon cemetery. Noticed a mistake? Have some extra information about this object? Please contact us museum@croydon.gov.uk
