A fragment of a ceramic vessel of uncertain date. The fragment is a body sherd with hard and coarse fabric of a dark brownish-orange colour. Numerous small quartz inclusions are present within the fabric. The fragment is 52.5mm long, 23.8mm wide, 10mm thick and weighs 15.5g. Generic fabric types such as this with no specific diagnostic features can be difficult to date precisely and range from Iron Age to medieval in date. However, it seems probable that this sherd is from a hand made vessel which suggests an earlier date.

Object type: HARNESS FITTING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete copper alloy loop, possibly related to horse harnesses or cart fittings, such as a terret ring or reign guide. The loop is plain and undecorated but taper in thickness slightly from one surviving terminal to the other. This object is unlikely to be a bracelet because it has an oval cross section, differing to those of bracelets. Due to the object's fragmentary nature, assigning a specific date is not possible, although it is unlikely to date to the prehistoric periods.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete cast lead spindle whorl or weight of uncertain date. The object is circular in plan with a flat top and base with rounded sides and a wide circular central perforation. The object is undecorated. The metal is a mid greyish-brown colour and is worn. The object is 28.7mm in diameter, 9.2mm thick and weighs 33.4g. Lead spindle whorls and weights were commonly used from the Iron Age through to the post-medieval period and are difficult to date with any certainty. Decorated examples are thought to date to the medieval to post-medieval periods while undecorated examples cannot …

Three pieces of iron; unidentified objects. The pieces were found in the same field as the Early Medieval finds SWYOR-1590A4, SWYOR-14ED88, SWYOR-14A685, SWYOR-148980, SWYOR-146DF7, SWYOR-145073, SWYOR-142DD2, SWYOR-13FF91, SWYOR-EB7AA1 and SWYOR-EB10D8, so there is a possibility they too are Early Medieval. However, there is also modern iron from the field, so the date remains unknown. There is a circular sectioned rod which is 107.5mm long, 12.26mm wide and 11.5mm thick. This is perhaps a bolt or pin. 58.2g. Also, a square sectioned rod which tapers at one end, where it is also …

Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Staffordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A cast copper-alloy object, probably either a stud from an item of furniture or a gaming counter for a game such as cribbage. The object terminates in a conical head and an integrally cast shank emerges below. This tapers gradually to a point. The relatively crude appearance of the shank perhaps suggests that it was intended to remain hidden, making a stud from a piece of furniture more likely than a gaming piece. The object is heavily abraded and corroded and now has a dark green to brown colour, missing most of its suface patina. The object lacks any distinuigishing characteristics …

Although the object resembles lead tokens from this period, it is thicker and larger than the normal size for tokens of this type with a bevelled circumferential edge, suggesting that it could have also been used as a small pan or standing weight instead.
