Description: | Fragment of an acorn-knop spoon, stem of quadrangular section, bowl broken off at join. Possibly remains of two illegible marks on back of stem.This spoon fragment is of typical early 16th Century English type, judging by the shape of the bowl. See Michael Snodin, English Silver Spoons, London 1974, p. 188.As it was found before 1996 this falls under the Treasure Trove Act; where evidence would have to point to the object having been deliberately hidden with the intention of recovery. The spoon is most likely to be a casual loss, therefore does not constitute treasure.
