A Bronze Age gold torc is to remain in the UK after it was bought by a museum using a series of grants.
The torc, valued at £220,000, is being bought by Ely Museum after it was found by metal detectorists in a Cambridgshire field last year............

Good to see it go to one of the smaller museums.
I used to have an issue regarding having an inferiority complex, I no longer have an issue with being inferior.
