Copper alloy beaded bracelet fragment of late Iron Age to Early Roman date, c. 1st century AD The bracelet is represented by two globular beads and has a surviving length of 25.0mm and weighs 7.2g. The beads have a thickness and width of 9.0mm. The bracelet thins to 5.2mm between the beads. The surface of the bracelet is eroded but some surviving decoration is evident, comprising ribs near the ends of the beads. The curvature of the bracelet fragment may suggest a bracelet of c. 50mm diameter. The bracelet has poor surface preservation with pale-green surface colour.

This is a small ingot of gold, approximately circular and large 'button-sized' in plan view, but with slight circumference irregularities. The ingot has a convex under-surface, with marked surface irregularities. This indicates the gold was poured into a small dished mould 7.0-7.5mm deep, possibly clay, sand or stone, and solidifying to take on the reverse contours of the rough and cracked surface. The upper surface is flatter, though domes slightly at the edges, with slight upper surface concavities. In cross-section, the ingot is D-shaped. Dendritic structures in the metal, created …
