Okay Adrian,
Could we assume they might be of Long's batteries?

Frank,

I assume we can. Pity that there are no names though. The remains were I believe, all re buried together at this spot in the 1960's

Well Adrian,
In that case they were certainly brave men, but, Charles Long really should have known better, he must have thought he was back at Omdurman and decided to just do the same thing he had done the year before. :(
Kind regards Frank
