Litlington Hoard.
Found in the ploughsoil having been disturbed by ploughing.
Collected by: Fagg.Peter.
Chronological and typological differences between this object and others from this " hoard" suggest that the rapier may not have been part of this hoard and that the integrity of the hoard must therefore be doubted
