Bronze Age urn found at Solstice Park

Solstice Park marketing executive Alex Spencer with the Bronze Age urn and its miniature companion. A HUGE Bronze Age urn dating back 3,600 years and containing human ashes has been unearthed intact at the Solstice Park site in Amesbury.

The ancient Trevisker urn had a miniature urn buried with it and lying alongside its handle.

Both were found within a ring ditch almost in the centre of the 160-acre Solstice Park complex.

The magnificent urn was found completely intact and undamaged and is an exceptionally rare find for this part of the country.
