An unusual ring, thought to be hundreds of years old, has been found in a Suffolk field.
A penannular ring dating back to the Bronze Age was found outside Leiston by Andrew Pegg.


“I’d been detecting about 14 months at that time, so I was a little bit of a novice," said Mr Pegg, after coming across the ring in January 2018.
