note
Gloucestershire - "The finds from the Roman cemetery include a fine brooch and many pots. Owing to the casual nature of the finds, which are being made during gravel-digging, it has not been possible to record the associations of objects in graves. A report on the human remains is being prepared by Professor Sir Arthur Keith." (English)
