Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Kent
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete and heavily corroded Post Medieval lead or tin alloy decoration, possibly a harness mount. It is circular in plan and slightly dished. In the centre of the front face there is an integrally cast raised flower motif. The back face is rough cast with a number of small circular raised areas around the edge and in the centre that may be related to a fixing method.

Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Kent
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A very thin silver disc, possibly a silver coin fashioned into a love token.

Object type: MOUNT
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete copper alloy sexfoil dress mount, dating to the Medieval period (1066-1500). This mount was fashioned from a copper alloy sheet, which was stamped in the shape of the flower, domed, and faceted with six petals and a single central circular hole through which a separate rivet would have attached the mount to a leather strap, casket, book covers, or perhaps furniture (Egan 1991, p162). This particular type of sexfoil mount was clearly in common use during the mid-14th century, and continued to be popular late into the 15th century (Egan 1991, p186). It weighs 0.40g and is 11.…

Object type: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Mesolithic or Neolithic knapped flint adze, dating to between 8300-2100 BC. The adze is sub-rectangular in plan with an almost triangular cross section which becomes more angular towards the butt. It has parallel sides, a slightly rounded butt and straight blade. The surface of the adze is covered in removals with scars and some impact ripples present where flakes were removed from the surface; it is possible there may be more recent damage, particularly at the butt end, but it is difficult to tell to what degree. This adze weights 84.6 g and measures 74.28 mm in length, 38.96mm…
