Solid cast lead handle from the butt end of a toy pistol with two circular apertures at the broken end, within an expanded collar, which would have attached to the body of the gun. The central aperture is 4 mm in diameter, and judging from a complete example recorded in SWYOR-4634F5, the aperture would have held an iron rod to attach it to the barrel of the gun. The complete example has another matching collar at the end of the barrel, and a trigger mechanism to enable the gun to be fired. The handle has been decorated on both sides with three moulded curved lines, defined by four rec…

Record ID: FAKL-B2FD86
Object type: STRAP END
Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Published Find published
Early Medieval, copper alloy strap end, which does not fit into Thomas's classification but is best seen as a variant of his Class A. The body is oval, but from it projects a D-sectioned bar around which are two transverse mouldings. On the body is a panel of niello inlay. Trewhiddle style decoration consists of an animal, facing towards the strap end's split but with its head turned back over its shoulder. Some niello survives. Only one rivet was used, set within a plain rounded area; there are two indents on the upper edge of the split end. Condition good but some detail is obscured…

An incomplete stone mortar or type of saddle quern of Unknown date. The object is sub-triangular in plan and sub-rectangular in cross-section. It is composed of fossiliferous Bembridge Limestone (not Quarr Stone) and the steeply carved oval recess is smooth through use. The sides are generally irregular. One side is partially flat and has been carved as such. The bottom is slightly convex and has a number of scuff marks, probably related to modern agricultural activity. A reddened area on the side may indicate burning or heating. The stone is generally a buff colour and the b…

Early Medieval, copper alloy strap end of Thomas' Class A Type 2, with geometric decoration and possible inlay. The strap end is lanceolate with a simplified animal head terminal made up of four facets representing the forehead and nose. The decorative panel follows the curving shape of the strap end and bears a close-set pattern of incised crossing lines making up a net-like design. These lines are inlaid with a white substance which appears soft. It is not soil and is notably absent from the surviving slot of the split end, again suggesting that it is a feature of the strap ends dec…
