This list of burials is currently a work in progress. More information will be added over time but it is hoped that even the meager information supplied here will be of some use.<br>
<br>
The map is derived from Richards [RICHARDS 2004:p.191] Graham-Campbell [GRAHAM-CAMPBELL 1994:p.134, 153] and from a map displayed from a Jorvik exhibition in York 2012.
