Big Day at Kirkhaugh Burial

Boom.  Now a complete set for the Kirkhaugh Gold.

Here's the story at the Journal UK 

Kirkhaugh Earring/Tress (PA)


Four boys found the other pair of the gold objects historically referred to as "basket earrings",  challenged by Andrew Sherrat as "hair tresses".  They were helping out at the Kirkhaugh, Alston site.

Good on the boys (PA)


Together again:

Found two days ago (PA)
Found in the 30's (British Museum)
