BEADS, RINGS, &C. OF GLASS. [One of] Seven glass beads from Morham, East Lothian. Alice Blackwell 26.05.2015, note: Erroneously identified as Anglo-Saxon in the past, this bead is one of seven wound beads found together. XRF analysis (Susy Kirk AR 2011/53) identified these beads as made from leaded glass, demonstrating a post-medieval date.
