Nice find, i found a bronze age axe head about a month or so ago, i was wondering what the proceedure is for letting the museum have a look at it and hopefully advising me about the slight bronze disease creeping into it?

Wasn't it lucky that we stopped you throwing that 'bit of old iron' in the hedge!
