Description: | Glass bead dating from the Iron Age to the Roman period. The object is circular in plan and D-shaped in cross-section. The object is of uneven thickness. The bead has a large sub-circular perforation. Where the bead is thickest the internal side is straight, while it is curved around the rest of the perforation. The glass is a frosted light green in colour and contains air bubbles. The bead is 7.38mm at its thickest part and 5.20mm at its thinnest part. These types of beads occur throughout Britain over a long period of time.
