| Abstract: | Following the discovery by metal detector of a hoard of broken metalwork buried in a bronze vessel, the topsoil was stripped over a large area and metal detectors used to identify anomalies. Subsequent excavation recovered a further five hoards, together with a further selection of finds apparently from other hoards. The finds included sixty-three torcs of gold, gold/silver, silver and bronze with six types of torc represented. They are dated to the first half of the first century BC, perhaps c 70 BC. MH |
