Object type: TOGGLE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A damaged cast copper-alloy artefact: possibly a toggle of Late Iron Age/early Romano-British date, although a later date out not to be ruled out. The piece is of simple construction, seemingly one piece with slightly expanded ends. It is broadly rectangular in plan and circular in cross-section. In this sense it takes the form of a dumbbell, the elongated waist of which is only slightly narrowed and covered with a row of about eight ridges, crudely cast. The terminals are flattened at the end but have received considerable strikes over and above this. It generally has a mid-green pat…

Object type: SPINDLE WHORL
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A worn and corroded, broadly circular cast lead object, possibly a spindle whorl or other weight. The whorl is flat on both surfaces with a rectangular cross-section. It is basic and has suffered corrosion and bending and is 'decorated' with crude angular punch marks all over both surface. The artefact has a large central hole with a diameter of c. 8.8mm. The hole has a ridge around it on both surfaces presumably a product of its creation. The object is c. 4.5mm thick and weighs 21.98g. It has been pointed out that the weight of a spindle whorl is suggestive of the thickness of yarn…

Record ID: HAMP-CA13A8
Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Bedford
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An abraded base sherd possibly from a Roman vessel. It has an irregular shape. It is has a flat base with little sagging. One wall emerges at an angle of c. 140 degrees. The vessel has a light-grey interior but is an oxidised mid/light-orange colour on the internal surface, greyer on the base. It has fairly even shell tempering with some fragments up to c. 2.5mm long. It may be from the Roman kilns at Harrold, however a medieval date cannot be ruled out entirely.

Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A cast lead weight of uncertain date. The object is sub-pyramidal in that it has a truncated, flat top. This gives it a trapezoidal cross-section. On the upper surface the square top has a raised X with a pellet in each. Between the square top and the base are four trapezoidal sides, two of which has a raised cross. A similar weight can be found in Biggs and Withers (2000, 29; ref. 62).

Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: West Berkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A cast lead pot mend, used to mend a broken vessel in order to lengthen the period of use after damage had occurred. It is broadly sub-oval and flat in profile, with the sections above and below the slot of similar sizes. There are no discernible pottery fragments within the slot. The repair has corroded to a light-grey colour. Unfortunately such repairs are not diagnostic; a wide date range is therefore offered.
