Full Description

{1} Alberg group III, cruciform brooch of a 6th century date, found 1988 in the wildlife garden at the rear of Walgrave Primary School. There is an element of uncertainty as to how the brooch came to be at this spot. The area produces much 19th century rubbish, marbles, thimbles etc and was possibly a local dump.
