Fragment of narrow copper-alloy bracelet. Although both ends are broken, the curve of the bracelet is still obvious. It is decorated with continuous, slightly oblique, ribbing made up of quite broad grooves which reach right to the edges of the bracelet. The edges are not straight and parallel, but wiggle as if the more fragile edges of the grooves have become more worn than the more robust edges of the ridges. Flat cross-section. Quite corroded, with some parts of the surface missing. Maximum width 5 mm; uncurled length of fragment, 53 mm. Weight 2.12g. Roman, late third or fourth ce…

Two joining fragments from a wide copper-alloy bracelet, 16 mm wide; the fragments are c. 29 mm and c. 27 mm long and weigh 2.52g and 2.16g respectively. No terminal of this bracelet survives. The fragments are decorated with two broad longitudinal grooves down the centre, and running down the middle of each groove are some obliquely set oval pellets giving the impression of cabling. Quite corroded. Roman, 1st-2nd centuries AD. Similar examples are known from Colchester (Crummy 1983, 37, no. 1566, fig. 38) , Verulamium (Waugh & Goodburn 1972, 31, fig. 31).

A fragment of copper-alloy wide bracelet of early Roman date. Only one terminal survives. The bracelet was formed of a single strip of copper-alloy with transverse terminals that have rounded corners, thus avoiding 90 degree angled corners. This fragment has a flat undecorated reverse with a flattened 'D' shaped cross section, being flat topped but slightly curved on the upper corners. The upper surface is decorated with what appears as a line of triangles with the apexes pointing right. The area between the terminal and this linear decoration has incised curved lines.

An incomplete copper-alloy late Roman bracelet. This bracelet was formed of a single strip of copper-alloy that tapered at either end. One end tapers to form an up-turned recurving hook and the other end, now missing, would have tapered to a, probably blunt rounded, terminal with a circular perforation through which the hook would have fixed to hold the bracelet in place whilest being worn.

Gold penannular bracelet, round-section, slightly expanded plain terminals. The terminals are not parallel and one is raised higher than the other, and coils slightly into the bracelet. The bracelet's surface is facetted and it is unclear as to whether this is a result of working, or a decorative feature (or both). The terminals are also slightly twisted and do not meet. The bracelet is a very bright yellowy gold colour, and the surface is polished.
