"Burying Ground" shown on Hutton's map of 1770. Archaeologia Aeliana, Series 2, XIX, xv
Site Type: Broad
Cemetery
SITEDESC
"Burying Ground" shown on Hutton's map of 1770. In use from 1683 to 1790 (second edition says 1688 to 1715). Was 200 feet by 40 feet. The term Quigs and Quicks is a corruption of 'Whigs'. Jane Durant, widow of William Durant, Congregational preacher, bought the site in 1683 for use as a nonconformist burial ground. The first burial was probably her son Dr John Durant, a physician, who died in 1683. Jane and the rest of her family were probably buried here. In 1765 Rev. George Ogilvie of Silver Street was laid to rest here. From 1786 the area around the burial ground was developed, including Bruce's academy and the burial ground became a playground of sorts for the schoolboys. In 1790 the burial site itself was redeveloped. Over 50 skeletons were exhumed beforehand and the remains buried in a box in the south-west corner of the site. Dr Bruce said that in 1803 he lived in the house at the lower end of the burial ground. Built into the walls of the upper part of the garden were many tombstones. When the garden became the playground of a school, the tombstones were covered in lath and plaster to prevent them being damaged. When the plaster peeled off, the tombstones were put out of view of the playground. One flat gravestone to the memory of a person called Hudson remains in its original place though covered with gravel. The conveyance of the property stipulated that this grave should not be disturbed. .In 1888 a Mr Maberley Phillips read a paper to the Society of Antiquaries of Newcastle upon Tyne on "The Quicks Burial Plas in the Sidgat". In 1896 seven wrought iron coffin handles were found and donated to the Society of Antiquaries by Mr A.E. Ingledeus.
