Full Description
Two beakers and stone wristguard "found together, but not, so far as I am aware, under any tumulus; and I was assured by (see 'Not to be published on web' tab for finder/s and/or findspot/s) of Brandon .... that no human bones, burnt or unburnt, were found with them". Found "recently" in `Brandon Fields', where extensively worked for flints (palaeoliths) (S1)(S2)(S3)(S4) - see BRD 058 & 062. However, specific location of these workings is inclear, note location of Brandonfield Wood at TL 760 860. See Tithe Map ?
