Glebe Farm, Medieval metal artefacts

A number of medieval metal items have been found at Glebe Farm, Moor Lane, Whitburn by a resident of Whitburn. These items were inspected by Tyne and Wear Museums personnel in 1992. A silver finger ring was found 250 yards south of the main farm building, where the land had been ploughed to a depth of 1 foot. Other items found at the farm include a rectangular buckle, 2 bronze studs, a bronze disc, bronze plaque, and a bronze belt buckle. All date from the period between the 12th and 14th centuries.
