Description: | A fragment of a copper-alloy artefact. The form and patination of this piece suggest a possible late Iron Age date. It may be a piece of a bracelet (see Stead and Ribgy 1999: fig. 112 for similar).The object is of semi-circular section and has two pronounced transverse ridges, separated from each other by wide grooves. At each end, just before the points where the artefact is broken, there is a series of much thinner, shallower, incised transverse grooves. The artefact curves upwards at each end, which, if this is a bracelet, is unlikely to be the original curvature. The piece measures 21.9mm long, 10.8mm wide and 6.8mm thick. The weight is 6.87g.
