The supposed site of Seton church was marked on a mid 19thC map, along with the claim that three stone coffins and human remains were also found there. Folklore suggests that one of the coffins is still being used as a field trough. Group members cleared the undergrowth surrounding the trough, but there were no markings on it to show that it was Anglo Saxon. A second trough discovered quite close, was considered to be too small to be a coffin.
