In 1956–7 a bronze statuette of horse and rider and another bronze object (a poletip or rattle) were found in a field a quarter of a mile south-west of Luscotes Lodge, Brigstock, and were published in Antiq. Journ. xxxvii, 71 with pi. xviii. In June 1958 a bronze statuette, cast solid, of a second horse, without rider, was found in the same field and is described below (no. 1). These finds seemed to confirm the possibility of a shrine or temple in the neighbourhood, and in consequence when deep ploughing seemed imminent the excavations described above by Mr. Greenfield were undertaken by the Ministry of Public Building and Works. In the course of this work further votive objects, including a third bronze statuette of horse and rider were discovered as recorded above. Of these, the statuettes and certain other objects form the subject of the following article
