Description: | A Medieval finger-ring made from a length of twisted wire, which has been hammered together at the back to form a hoop. The ring is of a type known from Viking and Anglo-Saxon contexts, which persist into the twelfth century, see the Larkhill hoard at the British Museum for a similar example (P&E 1854, 0820.6). This example is much inferior to the Larkhill ring. However it would appear to be of comparable age.The ring is silver, and dates from the twelfth century.
