Follis Constantinus

There have been well over 200 archaeological finds made in the parish of Holywell-cum-Needingworth, and those that we are able to are listed below with one or two pictures of each find.
The following finds (mostly from metal detecting and fieldwalking) are by George Britton and John XX, with permission from the landowners. The fields and exact locations of the finds are not published here. The physical finds themselves are now with Peter.
If you would rather look at the finds field by field then you can see them here.
