The skeletal remains of 227 individuals were identified, including one individual who had undergone, and survived, trepanning. The church was reopened in May 2007 as a resource for medical investigation into the development of diseases, and ossuary, containing the bones and skeletons of some 2750 people whose remains had been removed between 1978 and 1984 from the 1000-year-old burial site, after the Church of England declared the church redundant in 1972. The significance of the human remains is in the way they represent the pathology of an isolated community over the period of time around 950 and 1850.
