Bronze Age near by

 

The moulds are for creating axe heads in the Lincolnshire Wolds about 3000 years ago, and are among a small collection being displayed almost next door to me at The Collection alongside this tiny exquisite bronze pendant of about the same age (which the British Museum is allowing to tour four galleries in the country - it was in Cornwall and will eventually be in Orkney).  It seems extraordinary to have such things brought to my new doorstep.
