Another great season at Arthur’s Stone has finished - some great discoveries made this year, including evidence of quarrying within the avenue leading to the monument. Is this where the capstone has come from?

A bronze anvil in perfect condition and very much like a modern anvil.

Oh. My. Goodness.

(P.S. Well done to the detectorist who stopped immediately, called the specialists, which meant the whole hoard was lifted in a block)
