A grave found in the churchyard at Dunbar was lined with red sandstone slabs. It was aligned west-east and contained a poorly preserved extended skeleton accompanied by an earthenware pot. This practice is unusual but not unknown in Christian graves. Three short cists were discovered by workmen. Only one could be examined and it contained a crouched skeleton.
