Archaeology Notes
NT57SE 32 556 725.
Nine glass beads, seven crudely faceted and of opalescent milky colour, and two oval and black, found when digging a grave on the E side of Morham church (NT57SE 31: NT 556 725), were donated to the National Museum of Antiquities of Scotland [NMAS] in 1928 by Rev J Pattullo, minister of Morham. There had originally been a long, stone-lined grave and at least one other burial at the find-spot (Accession no: FJ 119).
