A gold finger ring with a D-shaped section, no joint is evident in the hoop of the ring. The exterior of the hoop has been decorated with an elaborate floral design, with scrolling foliage and flowers.

An incomplete cast copper alloy finger ring, probably post-medieval in date. The ring has a split bezel. The hoop has a D-shaped section which expands into a flattened, triangular terminal.

The terminal has been decorated with a stamped design, which comprises a raised line down the centre with arches either side with a pellet in each field. The decoration appears to continue around the hoop, but i…

A complete cast copper-alloy finger ring, probably post-medieval in date – it is also possible that this ring is Roman in date, but the original surface has been cleaned off, so it is not possible to say for certain. The hoop has a rectangular section which expands into flaring shoulders, which in turn expand into a rectangular bezel. The bezel is undecorated but either side of the bezel has been incised with two parallel lines.
