Spearhead – Amgueddfa Corwen Museum http://www.corwenmuseum.org.uk Corwen Museum | Amgueddfa Corwen Sat, 28 Oct 2017 09:58:24 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.3.4 Trip to see Bronze Age Spearhead found in Corwen /trip-to-see-bronze-age-spearhead-found-in-corwen/ Tue, 24 Oct 2017 10:06:43 +0000 /?p=401

On Friday 20th October, a group of volunteers from Corwen Museum went to Storiel Bangor to see a bronze spearhead that had been found at Plas yn Ddol, Corwen, in the 1980s and was given to Bangor Museum for safekeeping.

It was fascinating to look at an object that was used for hunting for food 3500 years ago in the forests around Corwen, and we were all very excited. 

We want to be able to bring this piece of our history back to Corwen Museum but will need to become an accredited museum first, which will take some time.  In the meanwhile, we have photographs and a wonderful story of how the spearhead was found, lost and found again by a sharp-eyed and inquisitive ten year old boy.
