page 429 note 2 Britton, op. cit., p. 279; Inv. Arch. G.B. 20, 6, where ‘two broken pieces of flat axes’ are mentioned as being associated with the armlet. When first seen by the author in the autumn of 1957 there was one piece of an axe exhibited. Sometime between 1961 and 1963 this disappeared from its case.
