A Spherical amber bead found with a primary cremation in disc barrow Winterbourne Stoke G67, excavated by William Cunnington. The bead was probably one element of a composite necklace, alongside 5 shale rings, two beads of faience and a lost jet bead. A shale button was also found with the cremation, but wear suggests it was not part of the same necklace.
