Description: | A small bronze bead, dating from the Bronze Age. The bead is almost circular though crudely made. There is a hole in the centre of the bead, though which the string would have past. The hole is slightly off centre. Both surfaces of the bead have been chamfered so they both slope downwards to form a triangular edge, rather than a flat edge. Some of the original surface has been removed and some pitting has occurred. The metal has a dark brownish-green patina, which is largely still smooth and has an almost polished appearance.
