Fragment of a silver ring consisting of a snake's head which tapers to the width of the hoop, of which a small section is visible. Fragments of a red-coloured stone or glass sit as the snake's eyes. The mouth is in an open position. An indecipherable mark is on the reverse of the head. Based on its stylistic appearance, this piece has dating to the 19th century and is therefore not classed as Treasure. N. Awais-Dean The British Museum 29/11/07

2009 T97. Description: A gold, circular-sectioned wire ring, now bent out of shape. When placed on a surface it is slightly undulating but essentially flat. Discussion: This object could represent the misshapen remains of a bent, V-shaped finger ring of a type which is rare but known from the Iron Age. The closest parallel would be a ring from Park Brow, Sompting, West Sussex, dating from 400-200 BC. However, because of the distorted nature of the object it is impossible to be certain of this identification. Compare two certain examples of V-shaped middle Iron Age finger-rings a…

Treasure case 2008 T778: Gold posy ring A thin gold band, rounded on exterior, inscribed inside in lower case: 'When this you see remember mee'. The lettering style is one that continues into the 18th century and in the absence of a maker's mark there is not enough evidence to confirm that this is more than 300 years old. As the ring can not be securely dated to pre-1709 it falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996.
