Studley Park. It was very heavy, and supposed to be worth 
about £32. The late Mr. Robert Harrison, of Lindrick, 
gave it to the late Mrs. Lawrence, and Lord de Grey 
exhibited it at a meeting of the Society of Antiquaries ; but 
where it was now the present noble owner of Studley was 
not aware. Two very beautiful gold armlets had also been 
found in or near Swinton Park, but, sad to say, they had

of results has been obtained. 
Before proceeding to describe such of these results as 
furnish the special subject-matter of this paper, it may not 
be inexpedient to notice, as briefly as possible, the more 
striking geographical features of the district which has 
furnished the objects of investigation. To this end, I must 
ask my readers to conceive a deep valley of no great width, 
whose general direction is from east to west, and which at
