Llyn Fawr, circa 1880's

Description

At the start of the Iron Age, c. 600BC, a large quantity of metalwork was deposited in the lake at Llyn Fawr, presumably as an offering to the gods. This hoard was discovered when the lake was drained in 1911 and 1912, more than twenty years after this photograph was taken.
