Skeletons unearthed by Gloucester Linkages workmen
SOURCE: BBC (5-7-10)
Two complete skeletons thought to date back to medieval times have been dug up by workmen in Gloucester.
The team was working on a £7m project to improve access between the city centre and the new Quays complex when the remains were unearthed on Tuesday.
The adult skeletons were uncovered, along with the remnants of a coffin, in the city's Kimbrose Triangle.
They will not be displayed and will instead be given a respectful reburial after they are examined.
