Title: Re: The Burton Hoard. Post by: Charles Cater on November 08, 2008, 06:41:01 PM This little hoard of Bronze age tools came from a place called Burton - Nr Wrexham. - I had been detecting this field for years with no results, I guess they struck lucky.
A collection of 14 gold adornments and bronze tools originally buried in a pottery vessel. The gold adornments include a flange-twisted torc, a wire-twisted bracelet, a composite pendant, four beads and three penannular rings. The tools include two Transitional Palstaves and a trunnion tool. A fragment of the ceramic vessel base also survived. This was the area that Mark Lodwick was refering to in his interview in Al's post. http://www.raremetaldetecingclub.co.uk/Jenkins%20interview%20mono.mp3 (http://www.raremetaldetecingclub.co.uk/Jenkins%20interview%20mono.mp3) Title: Re: The Burton Hoard.
