An incomplete strip of sheet gold. The sheet is rectangular in plan, around 0.5mm in thickness and decorated with eleven grooves. Treasure reference number 2011 T459.<\/p>\n
Similar multi-grooved strips of a Bronze Age date are known from throughout Britain including in the British Museum collection from Flixton, Yorkshire (2004,0904.1a-b, Treasure Annual Report 2003, 16. no. 2) and Ravencliff Cave, Derbyshire (British Museum 1906,1224.1-2) as well as recent finds such as Ansley, Warwickshire and West Acre Norfolk (Treasure Annual Report 2007, 47-48). A very similar strip from Sproxton, North Yorkshire is recorded on the PAS database as LVPL-83FE92. There is also a similar grooved strip from The Hamel, Oxford, Oxfordshire excavated from a layer which yielded Beaker pottery of the Early Bronze Age (Palmer 1980, 124-134). See also a similar undated but similarly decorated strip of sheet gold from Norfolk, recorded on the PAS database as NMS-BE02A4.<\/p>\n
