An incomplete glass object, possibly a bead. The surface of the item comrpises one clear break, while the rest of the surface is irregular and pitted, thus rendering the identification of the original shape difficult. The glass is light blue in colour and contains small air bubbles. The dating of this item is problematic; glass beads were used especially in the Roman and Early Medieval periods.

A Roman melon bead made of green glass (circa AD 50- AD 200). A hole passes through the centre. The object was found on a field that has produced material suggestive of a sixth century Anglo-Saxon inhumation cemetery, and so it is possible that this bead was reused in the 6th century.
