HER 5446 DESCRIPTION:- 2018 - This monument combines two sets of finds previously recorded within the Historic England National Record of the Historic Environment. Those records, quoted below, were formerly held within the AMIE database. None of the available sources provide close locations of the finds and it is likely that all elements were not recovered from the same location on Cleeve Hill: Historic England UI - 117651 - SO 92 NE 24 "Two miniature bronze implements, possibly votive and suggesting a temple site, found on Cleeve Hill (SO 9826), were presented to Cheltenham Museum in 1924. The larger one, which takes the form of a tanged dagger, is 2 3/4 inches long and of wafer thickness throughout. The other, resembling a socketed plough-share, is 1 3/8 inches long with a maximum thickness of 1.0mm.
