Description: | Twenty-five records on this database relate to a Late Bronze Age hoard. All the objects are broken and some have the appearance of being deliberately cut. The function of the hoard may be related to metalworking activity. The dating of the hoard to the end of the Late Bronze Age is on the basis of diagnostic elements such as the sword chape.
