Four objects were found whilst metal-detecting in late October 2014 and reported to PAS on 16th January 2015. Two of the objects were fragments of gold. They were discovered 5m apart, and 50m away from the other objects - a gold and a silver coin. Description: Gold-coloured bracelet fragments (2): The pieces fit together and a small toggle, oval in plan, forms the mechanism by which the bracelet was secured. This style of clasp was introduced in the 19th Century, and the bracelet is likely to date from that time. Coins: One of the coins is an Iron Age gold stater of "Ga…

A hoard of 929 fragments of copper-alloy plate and their container of likely Late Bronze Age date, c. 1150 - 800BC, possibly of the Wilburton phase (c.1150-1000BC). Description: The hoard consists of 929 fragments of copper-alloy 'plate'. These pieces range in size from 9mm x 6mm to 58mm x 41mm and are highly irregular. No element can clearly be identifed as coming from either a bun ingot, typical of the period or clearly definet object types. It is noted however that all the fragments are small enough to easily be added to a crucible for remelting. While most of the edges of the f…

Interim information on the hoard for the PAS & Treasure Annual Report launches in March 2020: This hoard comprises a copper alloy bowl, the fittings from a copper alloy bucket, and part of a clay pot. Buckets such as this one are usually found in high-status cremation graves from the mid-first century BC, alongside other pots, jugs and pans. These were drinking sets, used for serving mead, wine or beer at feasts. Perhaps the deceased hosted such feasts in life, or maybe this was a way for the living to share the funeral feast with them. Several such graves are known in Kent, and …
