Extract

The removal in 1937 of a hedge bank on the west side of Glen Avenue, Colchester, close by the footpath through Glebe Farm (N.G. Ref. TL 976253) led to the discovery of a small palstave with an amber bead adhering to the septum floor (Colchester and Essex Museum, Ace. No. 916. 1937; see pl. 1). Presumably, the palstave and associated bead came from the soil in the adjacent field from which the hedge bank was doubtless constructed.
