Book Description:

The village of Market Lavington is located on a low greensand ridge at the foot of the north-west scarp of the chalk that forms Salisbury Plain. Rescue excavations in 1990 recorded an inhumation cemetery probably spanning the late 5th and 6th centuries and possibly extending into the 7th.
