Two Anglo-Saxon disc brooches from the Galloway Hoard. The hoard was buried at the beginning of the 10th century, and discovered by a metal-detectorist in 2014 at Balmaghie in Kirkcudbrightshire. The Hoard is now under the care of @NtlMuseumsScot#FindsFriday
@auburn60poet @MadelaineCSmith I think we should stand back and look at it more often. It really is rather impressive and mostly people just walk by without taking notice.
We are on the lookout for a positive, enthusiastic and well-organised individual to provide administrative support to the Festival Director for @WinchesterHods.
