The hoard, consisting of seven rapiers (1-7) a cast hilted sword (8) two or three basal-looped spearheads (9-11) and a leaf-shaped spearhead without peg-holes (12) was claimed by Lord Oswald, lord of the manor. Before sending the bronzes to him Mr W.C. Brown, the farmer, had copies made of items (8) and (12) and reported the circumstances to Dudley in a letter (reference a) in 1931 when presenting the casts to Scunthorpe Museum. Mr Brown thought the hoard was found c. 1900. In 1934 a socketed spearhead (16) was found in the same field, as was a rapier (15) in 1935 : both presented to Scunthorpe Museum.\r\nThe originals of (1-12) have recently been relocated at Nostell Priory. The hoard has been kept there wrapped in a sheet of paper inscribed \"Found at Appleby 1884\". Additional wrapping paper consisted of a sheet from a trade paper dated 15 February 1884. So it seems clear that the hoard was found earlier than Mr Brown remembered in 1931. Two socketed axes (13-14) were enclosed in the old wrappings described above, but were wrapped in an additional piece of paper with a loose label inscribed \"Novr 1847. A celt found in diging (sic) out a Rubbish hole in an antient (sic) stone quarry called Maud Hole, at Appleby, Lincs\". On the evidence of the patina, the second axe (14) might be assumed to be that from the Maud Hole and item (13) might be assigned to the hoard, but the fact that the axes were separately wrapped introduces an element of doubt (2). In their opinion there is a strong possibility that the spearhead (15) and rapier (16) originally formed part of the hoard.\r\n", "FindAltSiteRel": "Lincolnshire"}}, {"id": 144643, "created": "2020-07-24T01:44:05.796011", "project_id": 456, "task_id": 84686, "user_id": 658, "user_ip": null, "finish_time": "2020-07-24T01:44:09.809639", "timeout": null, "calibration": null, "external_uid": null, "media_url": null, "info": {"NGR": "", "Site": "", "CollHist": "", "Contents": "", "comments": "", "ArchiveEtc": "", "ContextType": "", "BiblioSources": "", "Circumstances": "", "FindAltSiteRel": ""}}]
