We had our last chance on the new land hotspot tonight before the crop shows. 2 hours trying to find the extent of the roman area.
Got 8 roman coins (4 each), which takes us over our 300 target to 306
More importantly we shared finding our FIRST ever Anglo-Saxon Brooch. Small-long brooch dating to the 6th century I found the bottom piece & shortly after Dad got the middle piece. The top square headed piece is still out there to find. There is remains of the iron pin in the catchplate which indicates it was in the locked position. I'm going to speculate & say that it was a burial good, as it did come off a slight mound. We have GPSed all finds & of course we will be back to find the limits of the site & hopefully the rest of the brooch.
WHAT A GREAT FIELD - Celtic, Roman, Saxon, Medieval
