Schoolboys find gold hair clip from 4,300 years ago on a community dig in Northumberland

Four boys from Alston Primary School have made a remarkable discovery while on a community dig in Northumberland.

The 4,300-year old hair tress is the partner gold ornament to a one found during a previous dig at the site in 1935 led by Herbert Maryon which was found by one of the four boys - Luca's - great-grandfather.

The boys went along to the dig, at Randalholme Farm, after taking part in an Altogether Archaeology project at school at Alston Primary.
