Description: | A glass bead which may be Roman in date. The bead is sub-spherical with a central hole. It has a diameter of 10.2mm and is 6.7mm thick. It weighs 0.83g. The bead is made of opaque light blue glass which is chipped and scratched. There are concentric lines in the glass which may result from the production process. Beads of this style were used from the Iron Age until the medieval period and beyond and so are impossible to date. However, Roman date is most likely for this find based on the other material from this area.
