Description: | Cast copper-alloy ring. This ring has a circular sectioned hoop of irregular thickness with a slight bevel to the upper and lower faces giving it an elongated sub hexagonal section. The ring is abraded and the original surface is missing. Exposed surfaces are a mottled dark and light green. The ring has an external diameter of 24.36mm with an internal diameter of 13.7mm. The hoop is 5mm thick and 5.42mm wide. The ring weighs 9.60g. Copper-alloy rings found in isolation are hard to date with any accuracy. It is possibly late Iron Age or Roman given other finds known from the area, though it cannot be ruled out that it is of a much later date.
