All of the objects in this idno are marked in black ink: 'XXII'. 31 are marked 'T.M.B' (for Two Mile Bottom) or 'Two mile Bottom, Thetford'. The others have more specific information such as 'Nr. River', 'Sandpit' 'Common', and 'next rail'.

Context (CMS Context)
The entry for this idno in the accession register was struck through at an unknown date, along with many other accession numbers. Some of those struck through appear to have been given new idnos, but that does not seem to have been the case with this group of objects: they were all marked 'Z 32477' and a catalogue card was created using this idno. Nevertheless, two other completely different artefacts were also assigned the idno Z 32477, given a catalogue card and marked with that number, although there is no accession register entry for them. Therefore, the suffix '/Record 1' and '/Record 2' have been applied to distinguish between the two groups of objects. 19/3/2015 I.Gunn
