Iron Age iron gang chain
Complete gang chain with five neck rings linked by chains. The neck rings are in two halves, one fixed on the chain, the other free but fixable by passing the chain through a large pear-shaped link. The chain itself is made up of eight lengths, each containing five figure-of-eight links. These lengths are paired by oval links to form four separate lengths which are joined to the neck-rings by larger figure-of-eight links.

Gwybodaeth am y darganfyddiad
Enw'r Safle: Llyn Cerrig Bach, Cae Ifan Farm
Nodiadau: Found during the construction of an airfield at RAF Station Valley. Some certainly, the rest probably, from a wet meadow which formed the margin of Llyn Cerrig Bach. The exact depth below the grassy surface at which the objects were deposited is not known. The bog was excavated to a maximum depth of 20 feet. A few objects were found on the spot, after the peaty deposit had been won from the boggy margin of the lake. The rest, with the exception of 44.32/58, were found on that portion of the adjacent aerodrome on which the peat from this site had been spread. Animal bones were associated with the deposit and many metal objects were stained with vivianite.
