Silver sixpence of Elizabeth I; Tower mint; initial mark Tun; North 2015; dated 1593.

A silver penny of Elizabeth I, minted in London, 1558-61, initial mark is possibly a martlet, North Number: 1988. The coin has possibly been pierced in the centre, although this may also be general wear and tear. Coins with a single piercing minted after 1180 AD do not normally qualify as treasure unless they are pierced at the top or bottom of the object with respect to the images on the coin. This is because single piercings are not sufficent evidence to say that the coins have been reused.

DUR-390A84: COIN
A copper alloy nummus, apparently of Constantius Gallus (AD 351-5), dating to AD 354-55 (Reece Period 18), FEL TEMP REPARATIO, Soldier advancing left, spearing fallen horseman. RIC VIII, p. 219, cf. no. 223var. This is an unusual coin, because the obverse legend appears to end in VS NOB CAES for Constantius Gallus, although the bust is diademed (Constantius Gallus is always recorded as being bare-headed).

LEIC-38B896: FINGER RING
Post medieval gold posy finger ring, 19mm in diameter, 3mm wide and 1mm thick. The ring is in fair condition and weighs 1.62grams. The ring has a D shaped band and is decorated on two thirds of its outer surface. The central motif is a heart (with traces of black enamel) being clasped by two cuffed hands. Flanking this on both sides is a terminal consisting of a raised lozenge, a chevron and a pointed oval. There are traces of enamel in pale blue red and a greyish colour over all of the decoration. The inner surface is isncribed with 'favour my affection'. Similar heart and hand motifs appear on 16th and 17th century rings, the lettering would favour a late 16th century date.

A incomplete copper alloy Early-medieval (Anglo-Saxon) strap end of Thomas Class A Type 1. The strap end is formed from one piece of copper alloy and had a split end where the strap would have been inserted and secured. Only the rear half of the strap end survives; some of the Trewhiddle style design survives, depicting an entwined animal that is hard to define. The strap end narrows as it extends through the design. but it is broken further of this point where it would have terminated in a zoomorphic snout. This type of strap end is one of the most common styles, and dates from c. AD 750-950.

BERK-2C1A33: COIN
A copper alloy Roman nummus (AE4) of Fausta, struck AD 325-326. SPES or SALVS REIPVBLICAE reverse. The coin appears to have been clipped or was struck on a very small flan as there is no room for the legend on either face. Reece 17. c.f. Sear (1988) 3903.

BERK-2A3C47: COIN
A copper alloy Roman nummus of the House of Constantine, struck AD 330-337. GLORIA EXERCITVS reverse. Reece 17.

SWYOR-2A2815: COIN
A Medieval silver coin: a penny of Edward III (1327 - 1377), Post Treaty period (1369 - 1377), York mint, type 1. See North number 1293. Thickness: 0.76mm; Diameter: 18.1mm; Weight: 0.94g

WMID-2A2084: BOX
An incomplete copper-alloy lid from a set of nested cup weights. The lid is hinged and would originally have been attached to the outer case of the set, and it retains its hinge-lug. Three sub-rectangular struts are situated on the upper side of the lid - two arranged in a V shape emerging from one side and a single in between the V from the other side. The single strut is riveted with two rivets whilst the double V shaped struts each have a single rivet. These struts were presumably designed to strengthen the lid and prevent it from buckling when it was being used to lift the complete set of weights. The hinge for the lid is at the point where the double struts meet and there would have been a separate hinged clasp at the end of the single strut for attachment, now missing. A handle would originally have been attached to the lid, attached by a circular perforation (3.61 mm in diameter) on the complete part of the lid, and by another on the other side which is now missing at the break. The upper surface of the lid has a series of four lathed circular concentric double grooves under the struts. The reverse has a single circular double groove. The reverse is lipped to fit tightly around the base of the box. Not including the hinge lugs the lid measures 33.43 mm in diameter. It measures 39.9 mm long including the lugs, 5.47 mm thick (including the struts) and weighs 11.7 grams. It has a dark green patina. This style of lid, with reinforcing struts, is characteristic of a post-medieval date and perhaps manufacture in the major centre of Nuremberg. No traces of any maker's marks, verification marks or values remain and precise dating is therefore difficult. It is perhaps 17th to 19th century in date.

SUR-2A1BC3: THIMBLE
A cast copper alloy post medieval thimble. The thimble has a spiral of pits which continues onto the apex.

SUR-2A0636: KEY (LOCKING)

Around the girth the knobs are arranged in two tiers. Around the shaft or neck, which forms a socket, are five round holes, some of which may be intended for rivets or nails. The neck is 20mm in diameter.

SWYOR-298FE4: STEELYARD WEIGHT
A pear shaped, lead steelyard weight, probably of Medieval or Post Medieval date, AD 1200-1800. It is unmarked and damaged, with deep grooves into the lead. It would probably have had a suspension loop, but this is missing. There is no evidence of iron corrosion either. The weight has a creamy, light grey patina. It is 39.9mm in diameter and 46.3mm high. It weighs 388 gm (13.7 oz). As the loop is missing, it is possible that this was originally a one pound weight. A similar weight can be found on the database at reference: SWYOR-43E923.

SWYOR-298FD1: COIN
A Medieval silver coin fragment: a shortcross penny possibly of Henry III, class 7b (1223 - 1242 AD).

SWYOR-295625: KEY (LOCKING)
A cast, copper alloy casket key, London Museum Catalogue type 5, dating from AD1200-1400.

Both collar and shaft are solid. The shaft tapered to a point, but this has broken away and is missing. The bit depends from the centre of the shaft and is separated from it by a narrow groove on each side. It consists of an openwork rectangle above six small, equal sized, rectangular wards. The key has a dark brown patina. It is 34mm long, 14.5mm wide and 5.3mm thick. It weighs 4.18gm. A similar key is illustrated in the London Museum Medieval Catalogue, plate XXX, number 26.

SWYOR-26DDE0: SEAL
A lead seal, possibly a cloth seal, dating from the post medieval period, AD1500 - 1800. It consists of a thin, circular flan of lead, in the centre of which is a smaller circle of lead bearing the design. This smaller circle is folded over and not all of the design is visible, but what can be seen consists of an outer, beaded border and a key with a square bit and a circular bow. The seal has a light cream patina. It is 20mm in diameter and 4.7mm thick. It weighs 4.73gm. Compare NCL-D73271.

SUR-265AA3: HARNESS FITTING
A cast copper alloy so-called 'mini-terret' made from an alloy with a high tin content, giving it a grey colour. The terret is annular, 27.06mm in diameter, and with two prominent radiating ribs and a flat back giving a D-section. The central hole is off-centre and oval. This object can be compared to LIN-6799A3, SWYOR-6FB6D2 and SF-A70334. These objects are described in the literature as 'minature terrets' but they are different to true terrets in form and function. Hutcheson (2004: pp. 29) notes that it has been suggested these mini terrets were perhaps attached to the ends of narrow straps to prevent linch pins from becoming detatched from chariots. These small objects have a relatively long life span, probably dating to between the 2nd century BC and middle of 1st century AD. Minature terrets have been found in association with the heads of linch pins in vehicle burials in East Yorkshire.

BERK-265927: COIN

Copper alloy jetton of Hans Krauwinckel II, small rose-orb type of Nuremberg, reverse GOTES SEGEN[...]H, 1586-1635

SWYOR-25C3E5: PILGRIM BADGE
A cast lead alloy Medieval pilgrim badge probably dating from about the late 15th to early 16th centuries. On one surface, there is a crude depiction of the crucifixion. Christ is seen on the cross and he is flanked by two soldiers with spears; the edge of the token has a raised border around the image. The image on the other surface is difficult to interpret but appears to have contained an inscription within a border. The surface of this side has been worn and corroded, and is further damaged by stress marks from the token being folded in half. The may have been a suspension loop at the top of the badge which no longer remains. Edge damage could be where a loop has broken off. There is no other evidence of attachment. Other pilgrim badges which show the crucifixion are known, but only one, from Salisbury Museum, has a similar design as this example. This is Spencer's (1990) no. 73 (fig. 98), a circular badge which depicts the Fountain of Life, i.e. Christ crucified with the blood from his wounds streaming into a circular well or fountain.To either side stand the Virgin Mary and St John, each apparently holding a vessel. The detail on the Yorkshire find is less clear, but if the same scene is depicted, it becomes just the third example of the Fountain of Life known from England. It is thought that the Salisbury example, and a parallel in glass at Marston Bigot, Somerset, are both of Flemish origin and late 15th or early 16th century (Spencer 1990, 38). More distant parallels on the PAS database include two discs decorated on both faces. NCL-47AED3 is a token showing the crucifixion, and NCL-617555 is a badge with a missing loop which shows the crucifixion on one face and St Margaret bursting triumphantly out of the dragon that had just swallowed her on the reverse. Thickness: 3mm; Diameter: 29.3mm; Weight: 9.17g.

The arched bow has an acanthus button which is more prominent on the front of the bow and is flanked by a corroded double collar. The lower bow expands into a fantail which is flat. The front is decorated with crescent-shaped cells above circular concentric cells incorporated between a raised border and central vertical rib. The enamel no longer survives. The reverse is undecorated and part of the catchplate survives. The brooch has a bright green patina which is corroded and flaking. This brooch seems to be a combination of a trumpet derivative and a bow and fantail type, having a trumpet head, acanthus button and fantail. There does not appear to be another example of this type on the PAS database. Length: 60.6mm; Width: 28.9mm; Thickness: 31mm; Weight: 28.42g

SWYOR-248980: STRAP FITTING
A conjoined pair of mis-cast or unfinished cast copper alloy strap slides dating from 1250-1400AD. These loops are slightly misshapen, have never been separated, and none of the extra metal remaining from the casting process has been removed. They have a very rough, patchy, dark brown patina. They are 33.3mm long, 24.6mm wide and 3.6mm thick. They weigh 6.03gm. These are probably waste products from a manufacturing site, a suggestion borne out by the discovery of other, similar items of casting waste from the same area. Details of these other finds can be found on the database at references SWYOR-0FF1E5, SWYOR-76F578 and SWYOR-76E7F8. A similar strap slide is illustrated in Griffiths, Philpott and Egan, 2007,Meols: The Archaeology of the North Wirral Coast, plate 22, number 1472.

NLM-248137: VESSEL
Copper alloy vessel fragment. Cast and turned rim fragment from a robust vessel of estimated rim diameter 110mm; the vessel body, which is of 3.6mm thickness, increasing to 5.7mm by a break in the vessel wall (see below), may also have expanded in diameter below its rim. The overall form may have resembled that of a chemist's mortar. The rim was square in profile with an upper lip which converges with the outer edge of the rim as it approaches a vertical break in the wall, possibly to enable pouring. The vertical break in rim and vessel wall is a deliberately made feature, though of uncertain significance, as a lip would more usually spring from the rim. Diagonal finishing marks appear on the top of the rim. Suggested date: Modern, 1800-1900. Estimated diameter: 110mm, Height: 40mm, Thickness (at rim): 10.0mm, Weight: 139.74gms.

NARC-247F14: BRACELET
A body fragment from an early Roman broad, flat bracelet. The fragment is roughly rectangular, broken at both ends.. It is fairly flat in profile, with a rectangular cross-section. The upper surface is decorated longitudinally along the body featuring a central pair of double incised bands, bordered by plain raised bands. the edges are decorated by diagonal etched lines(cf. Stead and Rigby 1986, 126; ref. 166). The back is plain. At Baldock such broad bracelets were found in contexts beginning with Neronian. The object has a mid-green patina.

LEIC-247EC1: WEIGHT
Post medieval copper alloy bullion weight, 18mm in diameter and 3.5mm thick. The object is very worn and weighs 4.70grams. The object is similar in form to a thick coin and is stamped with three I's across the middle of one surface.

NLM-2476F3: WASHER
Lead and iron washer fragment. Cast plano-convex discoid fragment, from below a domed nail head. The remnant of a nail shank of square section 7.4mm square remains trapped in the lead. Lead could be used to sheath nail heads to retard their corrosion, or this nail may have secured flashing. Now torn. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1800. Length/Diameter: 26.7mm, Thickness: 8.5mm, Weight: 21.72gms.

NLM-246B04: WEIGHT
Lead weight. Cast plano-convex disc. A sunken central patch of diameter 10.5mm on the upper convex surface may show where an embedded object has been lost. Weights with embedded objects are associated with Viking Age occupation. The mass may indicate an approximate value of twice twenty pennyweight (2 x 29.2gms) or two ounces according to the Tower weight system, introduced between 1088 and 1158, but used mainly for coins and bread. Suggested date: Medieval, 1100-1300. Diameter: 37.3mm, Thickness: 6.9mm, Weight: 60.08gms.

NLM-246132: BUTTON

Diameter: 25.8mm, Thickness (clear of loop): 4.5mm, Weight: 5.83gms.

Lead probable shot. Cast oval musket ball, severely flattened by impact. The mass of this object, which is just over one ounce, indicates it is for a muzzle loading musket of military pattern, possibly later rather than earlier in date, rather than the more usual fowling pieces. A number of similar finds have recently been reported from the same area. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1800. Diameter: circa 20.8mm, Weight: 29.65gms.

NLM-242D63: SHOT
Lead shot. Cast spherical musket ball, severely flattened by impact on one side.

Copper alloy possible token. Corroded disc, with trace of outer circle on one side; all other detail lost. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1500-1700. Diameter: 19.4mm, Weight: 0.96gms.

SWYOR-129B37: SPINDLE WHORL
An incomplete cast lead alloy spindle whorl of possible Medieval date (about 1100-1500). The whorl is circular in plan and is roughly biconical, having a high prominent collar and raised border around the central perforation; this side is designed with a series of lozenges to create a possible floral motif. There is a border around the edge of the whorl. The other side has been damaged at the edge of the central perforation and appears to have been flatter; it is undecorated. The diameter of the central perforation may taper slightly from 9.5mm to about 9.8mm but this is difficult to measure precisely due to damage. There is no visible aperture in the wall of the central perforation. The whorl is grey with tan coloured corrosion. Please also compare the design found at PAS record ID: LVPL-6F5827. Spindle whorls are very difficult to date as few are found in secure contexts. However, it is currently thought that decorated examples of plano-convex section are likely to be medieval. Thickness: 15.8mm; Diameter: 29.1mm; Weight: 35.56g

NLM-129838: BUCKLE
Copper alloy buckle. Cast rectangular buckle frame with prominent round knops at its corners and at pin rest; the knops each bear a central stamped circle. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1700. Length: 17.0mm, Height: 22.1mm, Thickness: 3.0mm, Weight: 3.06gms.

Obverse inscription: I D G ROSA SI(NE SPINA) Reverse description: Thistle with angular scales Reverse inscription: [--]E?L[---] Diameter: 17.1mm, Weight: 0.69gms

SWYOR-128062: FURNITURE FITTING
A copper alloy fragment of a larger object, probably a handle from an item of furniture or a household fixture or fitting. The object is sub-triangular with two concave sides and one broken edge. The broken edge starts to bend forwards and the handle part would have continued here. Only the terminal of the handle, where it fits to the object survives. The front of the terminal is rounded, and the reverse is flat. There are two circular holes through the terminal. These would have been for rivets or screws. The metal has a partially developed green patina, and a Post Medieval date is suggested.

LEIC-1260D8: COIN
Roman coin, probably a copper alloy nummus of 4th century AD. Both obverse and reverse are very worn and corroded, obverse shows a head of emperor, but reverse is unclear. Thickness: 1.5 mm Weight: 1.98 g Diameter: 16.5 mm

SWYOR-125C16: THIMBLE
A complete but worn Medieval copper alloy 'beehive' shaped thimble with central circular hole. The thimble is almost hemi-spherical with slightly lengthened sides. The exterior of the thimble is decorated with small circular pits which are arranged in an irregular spiral from the base to the top leaving a bare tonsure surrounding the central circular hole. The pits, or indentations, are roughly aligned in columns. There is also a fine incised line around the base just above the rim. A similar example can be found in Egan, (1998) The Medieval Household, page 266, no 821 from a context dated c.1330-1380. Compare also DENO-945831 and WILT-D2DC31. This example is dated more broadly to the whole of the fourteenth century, c.1300-1400.

LEIC-1251D4: COIN
Roman coin, probably a copper alloy nummus of 4th century AD. Both obverse and reverse are very worn and corroded, obverse shows a head of emperor, but reverse is unclear. Thickness: 1 mm Weight: 1.12 g Diameter: 17 mm

NLM-124E77: DEBITAGE
Cloudy grey flint debitage. Struck flake with traces of four parallel flake removal scars on its dorsal aspect, and subsequently struck from core, all this being hard hammer working. Suggested date: Neolithic, 3500-2100 BC. Length: 18mm, Width: 13.9mm, Thickness: 2.3mm, Weight: 0.71gms.

Copper alloy ring. Cast ring of probably oval section, lighter than the commonly reported harness rings, and also lacking the angular section which these usually exhibit. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1500-1800. Diameter: 21.6mm, Band Width: 3.9mm, Thickness: 2.5mm, Weight: 2.79gms.

LEIC-123EE5: COIN

SUR-123914: BUCKLE
A cast copper alloy medieval buckle. The object comprises: a plain plate with a pointed inner edge and two rectangular recesses, two rivets and two assymetrical additional empty holes. The offset bar on the oval frame has short rear extensions which fit into the recesses on the plate.

NLM-122ED1: SPINDLE WHORL
Lead spindle whorl. Cast cylindrical whorl with slightly dished upper and lower sides and a neat central aperture of diameter 5.4mm. Patinated overall. The neat finish and tiny aperture may suggest a Roman date; unusually for metal whorls, this little example would be of an apt weight for spinning wool rather than cord. Suggested date: Roman, 43-410. Diameter: 16.6mm, Thickness: 7mm, Weight: 11.59gms.

NLM-122584: BOOK FITTING
Copper alloy book fitting. Cast flat plate with one end narrowed and curled over to engage a hinge (lost); a rivet of diameter 2mm is set centrally 16mm from the putative hinge. The other end is slightly expanded, with a projecting lug with curved sides which may indicate the object has torn at another fixing point, and bears three holes of diameters 2.2-3mm. Traces of longitudinal linear decoration appear where the surface has not been lost. Now folded over; treated with Vaseline by the finder. Suggested date: Early Post-Medieval, 1500-1600. Length: 31.1mm, Width: 14.1mm, Thickness: 1.4mm, Weight: 6.36gms.

SUR-121DA5: STIRRUP
A heavy cast copper alloy fragment of a medieval stirrup with a scallop-shaped extension and with iron corrosion attached. The 'shell' is delineated with eleven radiating lines which emerge from a pair of transverse grooves.

NLM-121B33: BALANCE
Copper alloy scale pan. Disc of sheet with six equidistantly spaced holes towards its edge, probably as two series: three rectangular holes of 2mm by 2.5mm, and three of circa 1.8mm square. These presumably represent the repair of a pair of scales; the larger holes remain a complete group while the object has torn by a smaller hole, so are perhaps those which were replaced. The two groups were also pierced equidistantly. Now creased. Suggested date: Medieval, 1300-1500. Diameter: 42.2mm, Thickness: 0.7mm, Weight: 5.14gms.

SWYOR-121A61: SPINDLE WHORL
A lead alloy spindle whorl of Medieval date. It is plano-convex and both faces are decorated with a pattern of raised lines and dots. There are intersecting and branching lines on one face, and radiating lines alternating with dots on the other. There is a large central perforation which measures 10mm diameter. There is a cavity in the side wall of the perforation where the whorl would have been fixed to the spindle. The lead is patinated to a grey colour. Spindle whorls are very difficult to date because few are found in datable contexts. This type, which is plano-convex with raised lines and pellets tend to be assigned to the Medieval or Early Post Medieval period.

NLM-1210E1: OFFCUT
Lead offcut. Fragment of cast lead sheet with cut edges, patinated overall. Suggested date: Unknown, 43-1800. Length: 35.7mm, Width: 21.6mm, Thickness: 2.4mm, Weight: 14.52gms.

LON-121037: FINGER RING
A medieval finger-ring of stirrup shape with two clasped hands engraved on the back of the hoop. The hoop consists of a flat band with an inscription, which reads + A V E M(?) A R I A: G - The last letter is incomplete but appears to form the vertical stroke for the letter 'R'. The full inscription would read: A V E M A R I A G R A C IA P L E N A (Hail Mary, full of grace) This is the salutation of the Archangel Gabriel to the Virgin Mary at the time of the Annunciation of Christ's birth. The words carried amuletic significance in the Middle Ages, and were frequently inscribed on rings and brooches. The finger-ring is silver and dates from the fourteenth century. Dimensions: height 26 mm, width 24 mm and weight 3.3g. Consequently, in terms of age and as the object contains a minimum of 10% precious metal it qualifies as Treasure under the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996. J P Robinson Curator of Medieval Collections

LEIC-120B57: BROOCH PIN
Medieval silver gilt brooch pin, 43mm long, 5mm wide and 3mm in diameter. The object is in fair condition and weighs 1.95grams. The object consists of a circular sectioned silver pin which terminates in a small rectangular platform. Above this is a circular incomplete loop with a rectangular section which would attach the pin to the brooch. This is hidden from view by an oval plate (10mm x 6mm) which is decorated with a cruciform foliate motif and is gilded. There are also traces of gilding on the loop and shaft of the pin. The pin is similar to an example on the database which is dated to the 13th or 14th Century PAS-371917.

NLM-120474: METAL WORKING DEBRIS

An incomplete copper alloy Medieval jetton dating from about 1350 - 1400. One side has a double-stranded cross arcuate fleuretty. The other side is very worn but the design can just be seen to be a Late variant of the King with Shield type. There is an elongated hole in the material and additional damage to one edge. The original border appears to have been removed or otherwise worn away so any inscriptions are no longer visible. Compare Mitchiner number 410. This jetton was issued from 1350 - 1400 and is French. Thickness: 1.2mm; Diameter: 24.2mm; Weight: 1.31g

NLM-0FDAE1: PILGRIM BADGE
Lead Alloy 'Bill and Charlie' Replica of a Pilgrim Badge. Cast relief image of a bearded mask. The face has exaggerated brows and round staring eyes, a straight-sided nose modelled in particularly high relief, a beard shown as straight strokes, and drapery rendered as crude cross-hatching. A hole of diameter 2mm has been drilled at the high hairline. The back is entirely flat, and the object retains its leaden grey colour overall. Few English pilgrim badges depicted bearded subjects: the most commonly rendered male portrait subject, Thomas Becket, was always portrayed clean shaven. St John the Baptist, and the face of Christ as preserved on the Vernicle, were sometimes shown bearded. However, this image resembles no published example viewed by this reporter. The crude modelling, unparalleled status and the unpatinated state of the metal may support an identification of this object as a forgery. It is probably a 'Billy and Charlie' casting of 19th-century date, manufactured with the intention of deceiving antiquarian collectors; the products of such forgers are now of interest to collectors in their own right. The eponymous Bill and Charlie began their career as mudlarks on the Thames foreshore, where pilgrim badges were among the first objects they imitated. It is uncertain whether the hole drilled in this example was for its suspension, permitting it to be worn, or whether it signals its conversion to a fishing line weight. Suggested date: Modern, 1840-1860. Length: 42.7mm, Width: 21.6mm, Thickness: 4.3mm, Weight: 16.40gms.

NMS-0FD808: COIN

A cast lead pilgrims ampulla. A pouch shaped ampulla with a circular chamber and a long, slightly flaring neck. There are two suspension lugs, one at either side towards the base of the neck. The two faces of the chamber are decorated. Side one is flat and has indistinct moulded decoration, probably of a crown on a cross hatched background. Side two is convex and decorated with moulded decoration of a quatrefoil. The foils are pointed and decorated with a central spine and radiating diagonal lines to represent leaves or feathers. This example is similar to BERK-921FB2 and examples in Spencer, B, 1990, Salisbury Museum Medieval Catalogue, Part 2, p. 60 - 61, nos. 180 - 183 Date: Medieval - c. 1350 - 1500 Dimensions: 52.56 mm x 31.12 mm x 7.48 mm Weight: 30.52 g

SWYOR-0F8F71: BUCKLE
A copper alloy Medieval buckle dating from the early 13th century onwards. The buckle has an integral plate and is probably a spur buckle. It is an oval frame with an expanded outer edge, with a knop at each corner. A hole in the plate houses the copper alloy pin which is looped round. The plate is long and thin with a expanded are near the frame decorated with a transverse ridge. A copper alloy rivet passes through the centre of the expanded area. There is a bulbous collar in the centre of the plate, and a fleur-de-lis terminal which also has a copper alloy rivet through it. The plate is bent. Compare Meols number 769. This object was found near Towton Battlefield, so it may date from 1461.

SWYOR-0F75C2: BUCKLE
A copper alloy Medieval buckle of Meols type C, which is normally attributed to the late 14th century. It is a rectangular frame with straight sides which have a transverse ridge at each end of each side. The outer edge is expanded and decorated with five transverse grooves, the middle three forming a pin rest. The pin is copper alloy, and is looped round the offset and recessed bar, but is not complete. This object was found near Towton Battlefield, so it may date from 1461.

NLM-0F69C1: SEAL
Lead alloy Bag Seal. Cast tube flattened and stamped; a motif within a circular frame may be a bird. Indistinct letters appear above, as part of paired inner and outer orders, while below an legend includes HUL[L], and the outer legend EL?GAN. Suggested date: Modern, 1850-1900.

NLM-0EEED5: STRAP FITTING
Copper-alloy spatulate or sub-triangular plate, slightly concavo-convex, the convex side being the display face. A knop appears at one end, and a collared rhomboid-section prong at the other. Two iron rivets of diameter 2.7mm are set on the medial axis of the plate. This object was originally reported as a possible strap end of early Medieval date. However, Rob Webley kindly offers the alternative identification of this object as a Post-Medieval hooked mount (with the hook represented by the broken prong) of possibly 17th-century date; Read (2008, page 219 nos 787-9) presents similar objects as possibly associated with sword belts. Length: 48mm, Width: 20.7mm, Thickness: 2.7mm, Weight: 7.70g.

NLM-0EE251: SPINDLE WHORL
Lead Spindle Whorl. Cast biconvex whorl with central aperture of diameter 11mm. Decorative relief moulding of radial lines and pellets appears on both sides; in at least some cases pairs of lines define compartments occupied by pellets. This object is slightly thinner or flatter than the similar objects ascribed to the Early Post-Medieval period. The mass may suggest the whorl was used for plying cord.

NLM-0EA0A5: BROOCH
Copper alloy Possible Penannular Brooch. Cast hoop of lentoid section, tapered towards both of its ends. One terminal is bent back on itself in the same plane as the putative ring, the other remains straight - there is no sign of that end having been straightened. Both ends are flattened when viewed end on, and thereby very slightly expanded. If the identification is sustained, this would probably be a Fowler Type B1 brooch. Suggested date: Roman, 40-400.

CORN-0107A5: AXEHEAD ROUGHOUT
Greenstone or metadolerite axe roughout, which has been petrologically analysed by Dr. Roger Taylor as part of the Clodgy Moor Project. The roughout is a bladed cobble that is ovate in plan and section, and lozenge-shaped in profile. There are more invasive flake scars at the butt end of the roughout, and on the left margin of the ventral face, and there is a concentric crack that carries on around the dorsal face of the roughout, curving inside the blade end. This suggests that the roughout has been trimmed by splitting as well as chipping, and then smoothing. Similar examples are turning up from the same area of the moor which suggests a possible local source or outcrop for this rock type. The greenstone is typical of that found in the west of Cornwall from known outcrops, and contains pale felspar and dark amphibole inclusions (Dr. Roger Taylor pers comm - see notes below). Examples of similar roughouts and axes have been excavated from the Neolithic settlement at Carn Brea (Mercer, 1981) and are referred to and illustrated on pages 155 & 158, Fig.64, Nos.S7 & CO166.

Silver denarius of Severus Alexander, Rome, reverse MARS VLTOR, Mars advancing right, BMCRE 831, AD232

SWYOR-00FE51: SPUR
A gilded copper alloy rowel from a spur. The rowel is has five points and has raised radiating bands between each pair of points. Iron corrosion in the centre is all that is left of the axle and housing. In the medieval period the use of gilding on spurs was used to indicate a man's status as a knight. Compare LIN-598791. This object was found near Towton Battlefield, so it may date from 1461.

CORN-00EE57: AXEHEAD ROUGHOUT
Metamafic greenstone axe roughout which has been petrologically analysed by Dr. Roger Taylor as part of the Clodgy Moor Project. Sub-ovate in section and plan with angled sides that taper towards the butt end, and lozenge-shaped in profile. The roughout has been shaped and ground from a weathered cobble to create a blade end and sides to the axe. The roughout is off-centre and its section not quite elliptical, or symmetrical either side of the mid-line. This shows that it was made from a cobble where one side maintains the original smooth surface that is due to the underlying crystalline formation over time, and the other has been pecked and ground, giving it a rougher, newly exposed surface which comes from inside the cobble (Dave Weddle pers comm). The greenstone is typical of that found in the west of Cornwall from known outcrops such as Penlee and contains pale felspars and dark amphibole inclusions (Dr. Roger Taylor pers comm - see notes below). Examples of similar roughouts and axes have been excavated from the Neolithic settlement at Carn Brea (Mercer, 1981) and are referred to and illustrated on pages 155 & 158, Fig.64, Nos.S5 & CO166.

NMS-00E9B6: JETTON
Copper alloy jetton, anonymous rose-orb type of Nuremberg with garbled legends, Mitchiner p377ff, 1500-84

SWYOR-00E4D6: SCABBARD
A fragment of a two-piece copper-alloy dagger scabbard chape. The front-piece is cast and terminates in a scallop form. Only the base of this survives. The grooves and ridges which create the effect of the shell radiate out from a recessed openwork aperture of uncertain shape. The sheet backplate is missing. In its form the chape has similarities with examples illustrated in Ward Perkins (1993, 285; fig. III), Cuddeford (1994, 40; fig. 76) and Bailey (1995, 70). Such parallels suggest a late fifteenth- or sixteenth-century date for this artefact. On many of these examples the front-piece has a rounded knop terminal below the scallop, which is not visible on this example. This artefact is now a pale green colour and is corroded and bent. This object was found near Towton Battlefield, so a date of 1461 is possible.

GLO-00E375: BROOCH
Cast copper alloy Roman dolphin brooch with hinge length 31.5mm, width 32.5mm, weight 15.1g. The wings are hollow and hold the spring support bar, there is a slot in the middle rear of the wing for the pin, only the top of the pin remains. The wings and head are decorated with vertical incised lines. The lower part of the bow is missing resulting in the loss of the catch plate. Date 55-100AD.

SWYOR-00CCA2: MOUNT
A copper alloy sexfoil mount of Medieval date. It is circular and domed, with six projecting domed lobes round the edge. The reverse is concave and there is a broken square sectioned shank or spike projecting from the centre. The mount has a white metal coating. This example was recovered from Towton Battlefield, so it is suggested that it might date from 1461. Compare SWYOR-36B463.

Silver halfgroat of Charles I, Tower, (R) initial mark, North 2258, 1644-5

SWYOR-00AB63: MOUNT
A copper alloy sexfoil mount of Medieval date. It is circular and domed, with six projecting domed lobes round the edge. The reverse is concave and there is a broken square sectioned shank or spike projecting from the centre. The mount has a white metal coating. This example was recovered from Towton Battlefield, so it is suggested that it might date from 1461. Compare SWYOR-36B463.

GLO-00A461: BROOCH
Cast copper alloy one piece Colchester brooch length 47mm, width 25mm, thickness 15mm, weight 7.4g. A small knop in the centre of the wings is the remains of the integral spring.

The catch plate on the reverse is closed. Date 25-60AD

SWYOR-009F24: MOUNT
A copper alloy sexfoil mount of Medieval date. It is circular and domed, with six projecting domed lobes round the edge. The reverse is concave and there is a bent square sectioned shank or spike projecting from the centre. The mount has a white metal coating. This example was recovered from Towton Battlefield, so it is suggested that it might date from 1461. Compare SWYOR-36B463.

NMS-008AC4: COIN
Copper alloy nummus of Constantine I, London, reverse SOLI INVICTO COMITI, RIC VI, 124, 310

SWYOR-008818: HARNESS MOUNT
A cast copper alloy lozenge shaped heraldic mount of medieval date. The device is on a red enamel background, but is indistinct. It might be a bird of prey holding an animal in its talons. There is a thick circular sectioned integral rivet projecting from the centre of the reverse. This object was found near Towton Battlefield,so it may date from 1461.

NARC-0078C3: FIGURINE
A cast copper alloy object. Possibly a figurine, or possibly a toy, although this is less likley as it is copper alloy rather than the usual lead alloy material used in toy manufacture. The object is the lower half or a male human torso. The feet are flat and the toes are defined. The calves are accurately proportioned and the legs are bent approximately 45 degrees at the knees. the buttocks are well defined and male genetalia are suggested but not depicted in detail. The object terminates in a flat surface at the hips, from the centre of which projects a narrow plate measuring 2.5mm high, 0.5mm thick and 5mm wide. the figure as a whole is 30mm high (from the toes to the top of the narrow plate). The copper alloy has a greyish-green patina, suggesting a high tin content. The object is possibly Roman, although the patina and style do not support that date. The nature of the object suggest that it is unlikley to be of Victorian or more modern date. Therefore, the date range on this record has remained broad to reflect all possibilities until a parallel can be found.

SWYOR-006882: HARNESS PENDANT
A cast copper alloy Medieval heraldic harness pendant, dating from about 1200-1450. The quatrefoil-shaped pendant has an integral suspension loop at the top, which is turned 90° to the pendant. In the centre of the pendant is a square with a lion passant left on a blue enamel field and from each side of the square protrudes a fleur-de-lis on a red enamel field. The material has a dark green patina. Similar heraldic horse harness pendants can be seen in Cherry (1991) in Saunders (ed) Salisbury and South Wiltshire Museum Medieval Catalogue Part 1. Harness pendants are generally dated from the twelfth to the fourteenth century, with circular and openwork examples predominating the twelfth century, more varied types in the thirteenth and fourteenth century including the enamelled and heraldic types (Griffiths, 1995, The Medieval Horse and its Equipment). Quatrefoil pendants are likely a little later in date. Similar harness pendants may be found on the database at record IDs: NLM-E06E66, SUSS-F5A0A5, IOW-051DF1, ESS-04D590, HESH-EB5A47 and SWYOR-1013E4. This example was found near Towton Battlefield so it may date from 1461.

SUSS-005DC4: BUCKLE
A complete cast copper alloy annular buckle of Medieval to Post Medieval date (c.1350- 1720 AD). The buckle has a circular frame with an integrally cast pin bar, around which a thin copper alloy pin remains. The pin is possibly a replacement as it is disproportionately thin to function properly with the buckle frame. The edges of the frame are internally bevelled. The bar is D-shaped in cross-section and measures 3.02 mm in length and 2.22 mm thick; it has irregular wear on one end, which suggests movement of the original pin. The buckle frame and pin range from mid-green to reddish brown in colour. The buckle measures 27.32 mm in length, 27.14 mm wide, 2.51 mm thick and weighs 4.14 grams. The pin measures approximately 16 mm long. For a similar example, cf. Whitehead 2003, p 44-45.

SWYOR-005AF8: MOUNT
An incomplete Medieval copper alloy gilded mount probably dating from about 1200-1500 AD. The mount is sub lozenge in plan and is decorated with a border, demarcated by an incised line; there appears to be some form of design within the border and in the centre of the mount but these designs can no longer be determined due to wear. The mount still has traces of gilding on its surface. On the reverse is what appears to be the remnants of a rectangular loop of sheet metal that may have been soldered on and there are no visible rivet holes. The reverse of the mount is slightly concave and grey in colour with some orange corrosion. This may suggest a white metal was used here. The front of the mount has a light-medium green patina. A possible parallel (construction only) for this may be seen at PAS record ID: SWYOR-947ED7. Length: 23.8mm; Width: 21.8mm; Thickness: 2.2mm; Weight: 2.08g

LON-0056E6: JETTON
A post medieval copper-alloy Nuremburg jetton struck by Hans Krauwinckel II (master 1586-1635AD), dating to 1600 to 1610AD. Louix XIII as Dauphin/Apollo and Diana design (cf. Mitchiner 1988, 465). It has been offstruck on the obverse, and measures 28.7mm (diameter) x 1.2mm (thickness) and weighs 5.07g.

Copper Coin. Farthing of George II (1727-1760), possibly issue of 1730-1739. Obverse description: Bust left. Reverse description: Probably Britannia seated left. Diameter: 22mm, Weight: 4.23gms, die axis: probably 6.

NLM-0049B7: OFFCUT
Lead Offcut. Tongue shaped offcut probably from close to the edge of a cast sheet; patinated overall. Suggested date: Unknown, 40-1800. Length: 28.2mm, Width: 8.8mm, Thickness: 3.2mm, Weight: 4.64gms.

SWYOR-003F67: SPUR
The centre part of a Medieval or rowel fragment from a rowel spur. Only the central hub survives. It would have had eight points. Compare LEIC-6B21E1. As the object was found near Towton Battlefield, it may date from 1461.

NLM-003F47: TOY
Lead Possible Knuckle Bone. Cast sub-rectangular object with indentations on opposed faces. This may be cast from a mammal bone as a toy. Various games were played with such objects, including throwing them in the air and attempting to catch them on the back of one hand, or gambling with different values ascribed to the longer and shorter faces. Suggested date: Unknown, Roman to Post-Medieval, 40-1800. Length: 24mm, Width: 19.1mm, Thickness: 17.5mm, Weight: 47.38gms.

Copper alloy Coin. Halfpenny of William and Mary, dated 1693. Obverse description: Busts right. Reverse description: Britannia seated left holding sprig aloft; dated in exergue 1693. Diameter: 28.7mm, Weight: 8.62gms, die axis: 6.

NLM-001893: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Lead unidentified object. Cast teardrop shaped plate, with an off-centre crease along which it is lightly folded. The mass might suggest a function as a weight and relationship to a Scandinavian system of measurement based on modules of 4.07gms, in which case this object might represent eight such units. Early Medieval weights of other forms were reported from the same location. An alternative possibility is that this is a later craftsman's palm guard, of which an example (NLM-7C1B38) was also found nearby, though this object is not otherwise marked by such use, as might be expected. Suggested date: Unknown; Early Medieval to Post-Medieval, 850-1800. Length: 42mm, Width: 36.3mm, Thickness: 3.86gms, Weight: 32.59gms.

SWYOR-0011D6: BUCKLE
A complete Medieval copper alloy buckle frame dating from about 1250-1350. It is a single loop oval buckle frame that is D-shaped in plan, with a knop on either side of the narrowed and offset strap bar. It is a Meols type 2. The strap bar is slightly bent and the pin is now missing.It has a light green patina. Length: 13.9mm; Width: 17.2mm; Thickness: 3.6mm; Weight: 1.26g

SWYOR-000773: STRAP END
A copper-alloy strap-end, probably dating from the Medieval period. The sub-rectangular attachment end is two integral plates, with a gap between them, into which the now-missing strap would have fitted. It would have been held in place by a single iron rivet, located centrally, a short distance down from the top. Part of this survives. At the closed end of the strap-end is a globular moulding, possibly with a collar but very corroded. Compare SWYOR-A0B922, BH-2794E7, LIN-019967 and LVPL-560210. There is some doubt about the identification of these objects as strap ends, and the dating is not conclusive either. There is a group of very similar artefacts which are identified as Early Medieval Saxon strap ends. However, this example was found near Towton Battlefield, so a date of 1461 is possible.

NLM-000663: WEIGHT
Lead Weight. Cast plano-convex weight. The mass may indicate a relationship with Scandinavian systems based on modules of 4.07gms or a Dublin unit of 4.43gms, in which case this object could represent 10 units. Further weights of other forms were reported from the same location; of these, a flat cylindrical example was within 0.15gms of this weight. Suggested date: Possibly Early Medieval, 850-950. Diameter: 27.3mm, Thickness: 9.2mm, Weight: 43.21gms.

NLM-FFFB64: WEIGHT
Lead Weight. Cast discoid weight, patinated overall. The mass may indicate a relationship with Scandinavian systems based on modules of 4.07gms or a Dublin unit of 4.43gms, in which case this object could represent 10 units. Further weights of other forms were reported from the same location; of these, a plano-convex weight was within 0.15gms of this weight. Suggested date: Possibly Early Medieval, 850-950. Diameter: 29.6mm, Thickness: 6.6mm, Weight: 43.07gms.

SWYOR-FFF6E7: THIMBLE
An incomplete Medieval copper alloy thimble, dating from about the Fourteenth Century. The thimble is 'beehive' shaped and is almost hemispherical with slightly lengthened sides. The exterior of the thimble is decorated with small circular pits which are arranged in an irregular spiral from the base to the top leaving a bare tonsure. The pits, or indentations, are roughly alligned in columns. There is also a fine incised line around the base just above the rim. The edges of the rim have been worn and the body has been bent slightly out of shape. It has a medium green patina. For similar examples, see Egan's (1998) The Medieval Household, page 266-267, numbers 829-831. Height: 13.22mm; Width: 17.5mm; Thickness: 1.5mm; Weight: 3.44g

NLM-FFF027: WEIGHT
Lead Weight. Cast conical Weight. An indentation of the base surrounds a central longitudinal hole of diameter 5mm and depth circa 15mm. The mass might suggest this represented three averdepois ounces, though the match is inexact. Round weights of 80 and 85gms are included in the published account of the David Rogers Collection of lead weights (Biggs and Withers 2000, pages 25-6). Further weights, of this form and others, have been reported from the same location as this one. A conical weight of 100gms also came as an unstratified find from Flixborough, where occupation spanned the Middle Saxon and Anglo-Scandinavian periods (Wastling 2009, pages 423-4, no. 3282). Suggested date: Possibly Medieval, 1300-1500. Diameter: 27.8mm, Height: 26.9mm, Weight: 85.20gms.

SUSS-FFEE55: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
A fragment of an unidentified cast copper alloy gilded object, of probable Medieval to Post Medieval date (c. 1200-1700 AD). The remains consist of a shaft with a crudely facetted end-knop and arm which is narrow at the knop and slightly widens in diameter towards the other end, now broken. Traces of gilding still remain on the surface of the shaft in patches and the copper alloy varies between an overall reddish-brown colour and a light green colour in areas with remains of gilding. The object measures 51.48 mm long, with an end-knop diameter of approximately 9 mm and a broken end diameter of 8 mm; the shaft diameter increases from approximately 6 mm in diameter to 7.30 mm. After consultation with specialist David Williams, the previously considered identification of purse bar frame has been discounted. Although solid purse frame arms have been identified from the Medieval period (cf. Wheeler 1967, pp167-171), the shape of this one and the fact that it is gilded suggest that the fragment was part of another type of decorative fitting. The object's identification remains uncertain.

NLM-FFE054: WEIGHT
Lead Weight. Cast conical weight. An indentation of the base surrounds a central longitudinal hole of diameter 5mm and depth 15mm; it does not appear likely that the hole continued much further, and it may have received a dowel peg. The mass might indicate this represents one averdepois pound or one Tower mark of 160 pennyweight (233gms) - the Tower Weight system was used for bread as well as for coinage, though for either system the weight is probably too heavy.. Further weights, of this form and others, were reported from the same location. Suggested date: Possibly Medieval, 1300-1500. Diameter: 39.6mm, Height: 32.1mm, Weight: circa 250gms.

LON-FFD9B4: JETTON
A post medieval copper-alloy Nuremburg jetton struck by Hans Schultes II, dating to 1584 AD. Venus/shield penny design (cf. Mitchiner 1988, 396 ref. 1318ff. & 406). It has been offstruck on the obverse, and measures 29.9mm (diameter) x 1.0mm (thickness) and weighs 4.11g.

SUSS-FFD856: COIN
An Iron Age silver unit of Verica, c. 10-40 AD. The obverse depicts a standing figure holding a 'lituus', or curved wand, in his right hand and a bunch of grapes in his left, with legend [CO]M to the left of the figure and M[IF] to the right.The reverse depicts a laureate bust facing right, with the legend: [VE]RI-[CA] facing outwards. Because of the narrow blank on which this coin was struck, much of the legends on both sides is either missing or unclear. For similar examples, cf. ABC No. 1250; VA 533; BMC 1421-49; S 136.

NLM-FFD464: BUCKLE
Copper alloy Possible Buckle Plate fragment. Rectangular plate, with slight curvature at one end suggesting the object has broken where looped around a buckle frame. Suggested date: Posssibly Medieval, 1200-1500. Length: 20mm, Width: 10.4mm, Thickness: 1.4mm, Weight: 1.44gms.

SWYOR-FFCF97: SWORD
Part of a cast copper-alloy sword or dagger pommel of Medieval date. It is a rounded octagon plan, hollow, and faceted so it is also octagonal in section. There is a rectangular sectioned slot through the centre and the pommel has broken across the slot, so only less than half of it survives. At the base is a large rectangular shaped aperture, with a corresponding rectangular aperture at the top through which the tang of the blade would originally have passed. There are some burnt carbonised remains attached to the inside of the pommel. There are no traces of any decorative elements other than the shape and the worn surfaces have a dark green/brown patina. This pommel is of Medieval date and similar to the group of Class VIII wheel-pommels identified in the London Museum Medieval Catalogue (LMMC, 1967: pp. 22) that are typically dated to between the late-13th and 15th centuries AD. This example is likely to be of similar date. Compare also SF-40D346. This object was found near Towton Battlefield, so a date of 1461 is possible.

NLM-FFC882: SPOON
Copper alloy Possible Spoon fragment. Concavo-convex scrap of copper alloy, possibly from a spoon bowl, with a stamped maker's mark on its convex surface. The stamp depicts an acorn. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1650-1750. Length: 15.1mm, Width: 12.2mm, Thickness: 0.9mm, Weight: 0.67gms.

NLM-FFBEA8: MOUNT
Silver Mount, possibly for a casket with a side of length circa 75mm. Cast rectangular strip with slight curved expansion at one end. An incised border confines a field occupied by hand-cut decoration of overlapping rhomboid or elongated oval scales, of which a central row are distinguished by alternating cross hatched and linear hatched infill, and the rest bear linear hatching oriented longitudinally. Two fixing holes of diameter 2.3mm and one (at the expanded end) of diameter 1.6mm are placed at opposite corners and off-centre. The flat reverse bears sparse diagonal file marks, and lipping along the edges indicating a possible union with similar plates. Now bent or folded in two places. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1750-1800. Length (as found): 37mm, originally circa 75mm, Width: 15.5mm, Thickness: 1.6mm, Weight: 9.65gms.

NLM-FFB434: BUTTON
Copper alloy Button fragment. Cast flat discoid front from a button with separate wire loop (now lost). The button front is indented from behind the loop, and bears a small round stamped impression off-centre on its display face. Suggested date: Modern, 1800-1900. Diameter: 20.8mm, Thickness: 0.9mm, Weight: 2.39gms.

SUSS-FFAFE6: COIN
A complete Medieval silver penny of Edward III (1327-1377 AD) . Pre-Treaty Series C (1351-1352). Initial mark: Cross 1. The obverse depicts the crowned bust facing, with little detail left at the neck and shoulders due to wear. The obverse legend reads: EDWARDVS REX ANGLI, with annulet stops. The reverse depicts a long cross pattee with an annulet in the centre of three pellets in each quadrant. The reverse legend reads: CIVITAS LONDON; the Roman 'N's are reverse-barred. Cf. North 1991 Vol II, No. 1149.

GLO-FFAE16: PENDANT
Cast copper alloy phallic shaped pendant length 36mm, width 14mm, thickness 7mm, weight 3.36g. The main body is sub-conical in shape. It has a narrowed w aist with a small, pointed bulbous terminal at the base and a larger, rounded bulbous terminal at the top where there is a truncated loop at the end. There this a V-shaped grove on the upper terminal. Date roman.

NLM-FFAA78: VESSEL
Pottery Rim Sherd. Greyware. Rim sherd from a wide mouthed bowl with everted rim. Suggested date: Roman, 40-400. Abraded. This sherd was kindly examined by Sandra Firth. Helen Fry and Hazel West of the North Lincolnshire Pottery Research Group. Weight: 27.10gms.

NLM-FFA267: SHOT
Lead Shot. Three cast lead shot (a-c), two (a and b) of similar calibre and one (c) smaller. Probably all for fowling pieces. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1700-1800. Dimensions: (a) Diameter: 13.1mm, Weight: 14.25gms; (b) Diameter: 13.9mm, Weight: 14.94gms; (c) Diameter: 11.6mm, Weight: 6.52gms, Combined Weight: 35.71gms.

GLO-FFA251: COIN WEIGHT
Copper-alloy circular coin weight of Medieval date diameter 16.5mm thickness 4mm, weight 7.16g. Obverse: King holding a sword and shield standing in a ship with a rose at its centre, all within a beaded border. Reverse: undecorated This is a British coin weight for a Medieval ryal falling just below the standard weight of 120 grains (Withers and Withers, 1995: pp. 19, 68). It dates to between c.1464-1470 AD.

NLM-FF98F8: VESSEL
Copper alloy Vessel fragments. Two fragments of cast sheet (a and b) from the wall of (probably) the same vessel. One (a) bears a round hole of diameter 4.4mm, perhaps related to suspension. The latter fragment has possibly been unfolded next to the hole, the other (b) remains folded. Both fragments are sooted on both sides. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1500-1800. Dimensions: (a) Length: 33mm, Thickness: 0.9mm; (b): Length: 30.4mm, Thickness: 1.0mm, Combined Weight: 13.39gms.

SWYOR-FF96F4: STRAP FITTING
A copper alloy Roman strap loop with a stylised bird head forming a hook, and pelta shaped projections to the sides. The centre of the fitting is a domed boss decorated with punched dots round the rim, an incised circle round the crown, and radiating grooves which flare towards the base. These are filled with a darker coloured material, possibly niello, and there are traces of a white metal coating on the rest of the fitting. Projecting behind the dome is a rectangular loop. To the sides of the dome project flat decorative element in the shape of a closed pelta crescent, the bulbous ends of the crescent joining to form a closed loop. The one on the left is broken. A hook projects from the top edge of the dome. It is in the form of a bird, probably a swan, with the long neck forming a hook which bends forwards so the stylised head of the bird is above the dome. The head has a flat beak which flares outwards, and a pronounced rounded forehead. No attempt has been made to define the eyes. The hook is twisted slightly to the right. Another projection would have occupied the last side of the dome, but this has broken off and is missing. The break suggests it was a loop. The break is patinated. No exact parallel has been found, but the fitting is similar to strap fittings SUR-F95097 and HAMP-BEAFC4. The use of stylised birds on Roman objects is well known. Compare for example the strap loop SOM-0C1191 which notes that "Bird mounts from a variety of objects are common in the Roman period although usually they are smaller bird figures with stud attachments, transverse rings or plain bases to go on vessels. See SF-3BA2C7 and LIN-6EC4F7 for stud attachments, LIN-F1A832, LVPL-52D258 and LIN-54A031 for rings and NLM-AC0EA8, HESH-6BDC15 for vessel examples". Compare also LIN-565C52 which is a bird head handle probably from a vessel. Similar objects have also been interpreted as cart fittings. This example is probably a military piece dating from the 1st or 2nd century.

NLM-FF8F46: METAL WORKING DEBRIS
Lead Metal Working Debris. Six fragments of lead melt, including a plano-convex fragment with a square hole produced by having melted around a nail shank (now lost), and another with a ragged aperture. Suggested date: Unknown, 40-1800. Combined Weight: 48.85gms.

NLM-FF65F6: MOUNT
Copper alloy, painted or oiled. Possible mount. Irregular lozenge or rhomboid plate with scar on its back from a lost attachment; the other flat surface bears black glossy paint or oil. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1500-1800. Length: 25.7mm, Width: 7.2mm, Thickness: 0.7mm, Weight: 0.55gms.

SUSS-FF6556: WEIGHT
A complete cast lead alloy standing weight of unknown date. The weight is conical in shape with a circular base and has a central shaft. The base of weight is slightly concave and has an incised circular groove surrounding the shaft, 13.19mm in diameter. The top of the cone is rounded off. The shaft exit at both the top of the weight and bottom is roughly sub-rectangular in shape and the shaft is filled with a fine light soil. The weight is undecorated. The metal itself is white in colour with darker patches. The typologies of these weights are not yet fully understood and the depth of time over which weights like this were used is such that providing a specific date for this object is not yet possible. The weight measures 17.37 mm in diameter and is 15.99 mm tall. It weighs 19.89g.

SWYOR-FF63A8: THIMBLE
A complete Post-Medieval cast copper alloy (brass) thimble with sloping sides and a domed top, dating to about 1650-1850. The top of the thimble has cross-hatched decoration, a waffle pattern, rather than circular pits. The main body of the thimble is decorated with circular pits and has an undecorated band above a rolled rim. The thimble is in good condition but there is no original patina surviving. Thimbles with a similar pattern may be found on the database at PAS record IDs: SWYOR-632EF5, SWYOR-634C03 and SUSS-27AB44. Height: 17.5mm; Width: 17.1mm; Thickness: 0.8mm; Weight: 3.93g

GLO-FF6152: COIN

LON-FF4991: MOUNT
A cast copper alloy post medieval mount. The object is in the shape of a stag's head. It is a hollow cast mount and the antlers are asymmetrical. The eyes, nostrils and ears are moulded in relief. The remains of a circular attachment can be seen on the reverse, projecting from behind the nose. The object has a dark green patina. It measures 43.2mm (length) x 31.3mm (width) x 8.7mm (thickness) and weighs 8.99g. There is also a close parallel in "Finds from Roman Aldborough" by Bishop, but it is now believed that the Bishop example was mistakenly identified as Roman and that objects of this type are in-fact post medieval furniture fittings. Similar examples which can be found on the database are LVPL-90DF14, SWYOR-33C043 and LIN-0B6761.

GLO-FF3992: COIN
Silver penny of Edward I Class 3g Date 1280-1281 Diameter 18.5mm, weight 1.29g Obverse: crowned bust facing forwards Obverse inscription: EDW R ANGL DNS HYB Reverse: long cross with three pellets in each angle Reverse inscription: CIVI/TAS/LON/DON Mint: London

NLM-FF0077: COIN
Copper alloy Coin. Probably a radiate, issuer unknown, Reece period 13. Obverse description: Radiate bust possibly cuirassed right. Reverse description: Encrusted. Diameter (long axis of oval flan): 21.5mm, Weight: 2.36gms.

SWYOR-FEF701: MOUNT
A copper alloy Iron Age mount in very good condition. The mount has a sub-spherical knob on a curved base. The base is an elongated oval in plan, with rounded ends. In profile, the bottom edge is convex suggesting the mount was fixed to a concave surface. The reverse, or underside is concave; U shaped. There is a small circular rivet hole in each end of the base, on the top face. The top and sides are decorated with curved double grooves. One line runs across the base at each end, just inside the rivet hole. Further lines spring from the centre of each of the first lines, and curve to the centre of the side edge. The globular knop is integral to the base, and is positioned on the top of the base, in the centre. There is a moulded yin yang design in slight relief on each half of the sphere. The mount has a smooth grey green patina with some small pits of green corrosion. A parallel has not been found on the database, and it remains uncertain what object this mount is from. The style suggests a date from 100 BC - 100 AD. For objects of similar style compare WAW-128D32 and ESS-42D947.

NLM-FEF122: COIN
Copper alloy probable coin. Possibly a radiate, issuer unknown, Reece periods 13-14, late Roman issue of 260-296. Obverse description: Radiate bust. Reverse description: Possibly draped figure. Diameter: 14.2mm, Weight: 0.38gms.

NLM-FEE650: THIMBLE
Copper alloy Thimble. Conical pressed metal thimble with foot ring, closely spaced indentations on its sides, and larger indentations in a rectilinear lattice pattern on its top. Suggested date: Modern, 1850-1900. Height: 20.3mm, Diameter: 20mm, Thickness (at footring): 1.4mm, Weight: 5.33gms.

LON-FED757: TOKEN

Reverse: (Diamond) NEERE . STRAND . BRIDGE= Wild man with a club Demensions: Diameter: 16.0mm, Thickness: 0.6mm, and weight 0.53g. Reference: Williamson, G. C. 1889. Trade Tokens Issued in the Seventeenth Century. Elliot Stock: London.

NLM-FED630: SPOON
Copper alloy Spoon. Handle terminal. Cast disc-ended baluster shaped handle terminal. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1650-1750. Length: 15.5mm, Diameter (terminal): 10.8mm, Weight: 2.67gms.

BERK-FED593: HARNESS HOOK
A copper-alloy Medieval hooked mount, probably from harness. The mount has a D-shaped cross section with a flat reverse. The mount is in the form of rectangular plate with an integral hook that curves round towards the rear of the object. There is a moulded collar just beneath where the curve of the hook begins. There is no other decoration. On the reverse of the rectangular plate are two integrally cast copper alloy rivets (probably incomplete) that would have attached the mount to a leather strap. This hooked mount dates from c.1270-1350 AD.

NLM-FECB93: PIN
Copper alloy Pin. Cast pin with globular head, flattened on its top, with a collar between head and a shank of an undifferentiated round section and diameter 1.8mm; the tip is probably lost. The pin resembles those from Flixborough ascribed to Type 131, and is undecorated save for its flat top. Suggested date: Early Medieval, 700-850. Length: 26.1mm, Diameter (head): 7.9mm, Weight: 2.01gms.

NLM-FEBE65: DISC
Lead Disc. Possibly a game counter. A flat disc cut from thin cast sheet. One side bears closely spaced scored lines, mainly at right angles to each other but with a few running across the resultant grid pattern. An irregular central perforation of diameter 3.3mm has been made from the lined side, perhaps with the point of a knife, and probably after the lines were scored. Patinated overall. Suggested date: Medieval, 1200-1500. Diameter: 23.2mm, Thickness: 2.1mm, Weight: 5.52gms.

SWYOR-FEB2F3: COIN
A Medieval silver coin: a penny of Edward I (1272-1307), Class 10 (1302-1310), probably class 10cf; minted at London. See North, volume 2, page 24, number 1039 (c-e). Thickness: 0.7mm; Diameter: 18.7mm; Weight: 1.36g

NLM-FEB128: THIMBLE
Lead possible palm guard. Cast sheet fragment cut to a pointed leaf shape, with a small hole of diameter 1.8mm close to the edge which was perhaps intended to receive a thin cord for suspension. The edges are nicked all round, with most of these cut marks made from one side, and both flat faces are scored with numerous straight cut marks running at various angles. There is also a central indentation, and the object is now curled over. The object is only lightly patinated, suggesting a relatively recent date. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1700-1800. Length (as found): 25mm, Width: 25mm, Thickness: 2.5mm, Weight: 21.56gms.

GLO-FEAF73: COIN
Silver cut halfpenny of John Class 5b 1205-1207 Length 19mm, width 9mm, weight 0.58g Obverse: crowned bust facing forwards holding sceptre Obverse inscription: [H]ENRICVS [REX] Reverse: short cross voided with three pellets in each angle Reverse inscription: HVF[...]OVE Mint: Rochester Moneyer: Hunferei

HAMP-FEAB47: VESSEL
A group of copper-alloy sheets rivetted together, possibly a repair to a medieval/post-medieval vessel. A thin fragmentary sheet is sandwiched between two other thin sheets; the three are held together by a rolled sheet rivet, suggesting that this might be a repair. The two outer sheets have angular ends where they survive. They are also slightly darker than the inner sheet suggesting that they are separate and of a slightly different alloy. The inner sheet has corroded to a mid-green colour with areas of light-green corrosion product. The corners of the sheets have been slightly bent in profile.

NLM-FEA297: PENCIL
Lead pencil; formerly termed a stylus or rod. Cast round section rod with a blunt point at one end, now folded in half and patinated overall, and gouged, probably in antiquity. Suggested date: Medieval, 1200-1500. Length (as found): 36.1mm, Diameter: 7.6mm, Weight: 30.47gms.

NLM-FE9685: AMPULLA
Lead Alloy Pilgrim Badge fragment. Cast bi-convex fragment from the lower part of a scallop shell shaped ampulla, with a prominent seam between its two faces, both of which are ridged like a shell. A flat circular field on one side bears traces in low relief of an angular linear motif within a double linear border, possibly part of monogram. The other, entirely convex, face is prominently ridged in imitation of a cockle shell. The object is torn at the position of a marked in-swing of its sides, again imitating the natural form of the shell. Fragments now contained within its open body may include part of its top. Patinated overall. The cockle shell was initially the badge of the shrine of Santiago de Compostella, though the motif was subsequently adapted for many other shrines. Suggested date: Medieval, 1200-1500. Height: 31.7mm, Width: 38.4mm, Thickness (overall): 11.2mm, Weight: 44.55gms.

SWYOR-FE9552: HARNESS PENDANT
A cast, copper alloy harness pendant dating from 1150-1300AD. The pendant is circular with a central motif of a shield charged with a cross pattee. Unusually for a harness pendant, it carries an inscription reading: AVE MARIA GRACIA. The device and iconography employed in this pendant are interesting and it is probable that it has some relationship with the Crusades and potentially represents one of the military orders, either the Knights Templar or the Knights Hospitaller/Knights of St. John. A near identical example is recorded on the PAS database from Norfolk (NMS-F4ABB6) and in four examples from Yorkshire with probable Templar association (IHS-6F1E82, IHS-6FCF57, IHS-7018F5 and SWYOR-5503A3). All of the parallels suggest a date in the 12th to 13th centuries AD, and if a connection to the Templars can be determined (though this remains uncertain), then it should date no later than 1314 AD when the order was dissolved. Compare also SF-3A4CD2, LIN-7A7E90, LIN-6A21B6, YORYM-2BCC57, SWYOR-289416, YORYM-6D3B53, SWYOR-D8C192, NMS-EEF2A4 and DENO-F5F2C5. The words AVE MARIA GRACIA mean Hail Mary, full of grace in Latin and are the opening words of the prayer known in English as the Hail Mary. The central cross pattee refers, in all likelihood, to the arms of the Knights Templar, who used argent, a cross pattee gules as their arms (a red cross on a white background). The Knights Templar were initially formed to defend the Holy Land; after a somewhat hesitant start the Order grew rapidly, and its Houses are found across Europe. Much of the Knights' success was due to their ability to act as international bankers; their wealth resided largely in the substantial amount of land bequeathed to them by devout individuals seeking to ameliorate the fate of their souls. By no means all Knights Templar resided in the Holy Land; in common with all large organizations, the Knights had 'employees' wherever their property lay. Templar Houses are found throughout Yorkshire, e.g., Snainton near Malton, and the Preceptory of Temple Hirst, in Birkin, was a Knight Templar possession. A significant number of villages, including Escrick, have Templar tombs in their churches.

SUSS-FE90E0: BELL
An incomplete cast copper alloy Post Medieval rumbler or 'crotal' bell, c. 1600-1800 AD The bell would have originally been spherical in shape but has been broken and around 25% of the lower half is missing. There is a crude raised join around the circumference of the bell where the hemispheres meet. The bottom half of the bell would have included a sound slit with a hole at each end, now missing. The upper hemisphere has a square suspension loop with a circular hole through its thickness. The loop appears to be integrally cast, but the heavy corrosion on the surface of the bell makes determination difficult. The suspension loop is flanked by two sound holes, one approximately 3.1mm in diameter and the other approximately 4.7mm. The lower hemisphere is decorated with a 'sunburst' pattern, although very little remains. The metal is encrusted with a light soil but is a dark green colour with sparse lighter green patches. The bell measures 30.70mm in diameter, 39.91mm tall including the suspension loop. The bell weighs 24.46g.

GLO-FE8E30: COIN
Copper alloy South-Weston stater Diameter 18mm, thickness 2.5mm, weight 3g Obverse: line e, crossed by leaf l and trumpets m, before 3 crescents Reverse: horse 1 abover 15 pellets. Condition: poor See British Museum Catalogue 2826 After Hobbs 1996, British Iron Age Coins in the British Museum, The British Museum Press.

NLM-FE8792: CUIRASS
Copper alloy and iron or steel Possible Cuirass hinge, perhaps from lorica segmentata. Pair of cast lobate hinge plates with pelta shaped terminals; one hinge bears a centrally placed iron rivet of diameter 3mm, and where the plates meet an axis bar of ferrous metal of (now) diameter circa 4mm passes between them. Part of one of the terminals appears to be folded back and trapped between the plates. Rob Webley kindly suggests this may be later: ' [It] Would be good to get the FAs opinion on this one; it looks far more like post-medieval hinges that I've seen from boxes and the like'. Suggested date: Unknown, Roman to Post-Medieval, 40-1650. Length: 24.8mm, Width: 16.7mm, Thickness (plates): 0.9mm, Weight: 4.29gms.

CORN-FE8724: AXEHEAD
Incomplete metamafic greenstone axe which has been petrologically analysed by Dr. Roger Taylor as part of the Clodgy Moor Project. Sub-ovate in plan with parallel sides, which would taper slightly towards the butt if it remained, and lozenge-shaped in profile and in section. Less than half of the axe remains, mainly the blade edge, which has a shaped finish and has broken from a weathered cobble, possibly during manufacture, after some grinding on either side of the blade. The axe may have originally been at least twice as long, judging from similar ethnographic parallels, in order to balance it with the haft. The axe may look like an adze because its blade is slightly off-centre and its section not quite elliptical, or symmetrical either side of the mid-line. But this just shows that it was made from a cobble where one side maintains the original smooth surface that is due to the underlying crystalline formation over time, and the other has been pecked and ground, giving it a rougher, newly exposed surface which comes from inside the cobble (Dave Weddle pers comm). The greenstone is typical of that found in the west of Cornwall from known outcrops and contains pale felspars and dark amphibole inclusions (Dr. Roger Taylor pers comm - see notes below). Similar examples have been excavated from the Neolithic settlement at Carn Brea and are illustrated in Mercer (1981) on page 155, Fig.64, for example, No.S6.

NLM-FE6095: MOUNT
Copper alloy Mount. Cast rectangular plate with three rivet holes at one end; two occupied by rivets of diameter 1.8mm which are clenched over at the back of the plate; the central hole appears countersunk, of diameter 2mm, and perhaps was never used. The mid point of the plate is ridged, and its other end is also thickened with a gutter adjacent to this on the back. Decoration comprises incised triangles either side of the central ridge, filled with groups of two or three round or oval punchmarks. An identification as a fragment from scale armour was offered by the finder, on the grounds that groove and gutter might permit articulation, but Dr Kevin Leahy kindly opines the object is too thick to admit this. Suggested date: Medieval, 1350-1450. Length: 25.1mm, Width: 14.3mm, Thickness: 1.4mm, Weight: 3.25gms.

NMS-FE5A74: COIN

Silver Coin. Fragment of a Voided Long Cross Penny of Henry III (1216-1272), probably Class 5g, issue of 1247-1272. Obverse description: Facing bust sceptre left, sceptre after X, class 5. Obverse inscription: (--)REX (---) Reverse description: Voided long cross, three pellets in angles. Reverse inscription: (--)REN/A?(--), possibly for moneyer Renaud, active at Bury St Edmunds and London, striking types 5g and 5g-7 respectively. Diameter (in excess of): 16.2mm, Weight: 0.46gms.

LON-FE4AE7: TOY
A fragment of a modern lead alloy toy train carriage. The fragment contains one side of the carriage; it is decorated on one face with two wheels and the slatted carriage wall. The name 'LIVERPOOL' is written inside one of the slats. Attached to one wheel is a linear fragment, possibly a piece of track. The top of the carriage is broken. The reverse is plain and rough, suggesting that this was one side of a 3D toy and that the reverse would have been hidden inside the toy. The fragment measures 40.7mm (length) x 25.6mm (width) x 1.7mm (thickness) and weighs 3.05g. This toy fragment was examined by Hazel Forsyth, who identified it as part of a 19th or early 20th century train carriage.

SWYOR-FE45B5: STRAP FITTING
A fragment of a copper alloy strap fitting, probably from a sword belt. Only one suspension loop from the plate survives. It is a tab with a rounded end containing a circular hole. There are transverse grooves across the tab beneath the hole. The rest of the plate has broken away. It was probably similar in design to ESS-6089B7 or IOW-1DEC97. A Post Medieval date of 1550 - 1700 is likely. The object was recovered near to Towton Battlefield, so an earlier date of about 1461 is also a possibility.

SOM-FE42C3: VESSEL
Rim fragment from a late Medieval or Post Medieval cast copper alloy vessel. The rim flared out from the vessel wall, none of which survives. There is a slight rounded expansion on the inner side of the rim. The outer side is rough from the poorly finished mould and the inner side smooth. There are traces of sooting on the outer side. Two circular holes have been drilled near one broken edge, one of which still holds the remains of a rolled copper alloy sheet rivet. It is 62.4mm in width and 34.0mm in height, 4.3mm thick including the rivet and 31.82 grams in weight. The holes are lined up to follow the alignment of the break and are probably from an old repair, as seen on SUSS-881300, rather than from a handle lug as seen on SOM-1E9E42. Crudely made cast copper alloy vessels were widely used from c.1200-1700 for serving and cooking. Butler and Green (2003; 15) state 'there is evidence that (cast copper alloy) metal cooking vessels became increasingly common during the 13th and 14th centuries'. Although earlier copper alloy vessels are known they are rarer and mostly of sheet metal or hammered out (ibid; 7). While certain specialist cast copper alloy vessels such as skillets remained in use later 'bronze caldrons in general seem to have been superseded in the early years of the 18th century when their place was taken by cast-iron vessels which were cheaper to make and more durable to use.' (ibid: 22). The rivet appear to be formed of a spiral rolled kite shaped piece of sheeting, a type that came in between the late 15th and late 16th centuries (Egan 2005:101).

Double looped buckle length 34mm, width 20mm, thickness 2mm, weight 2.9g. Plain oval frames with am expanded, slightly pointed, forward edge. Knop at either end of the strap bar. Copper alloy pin still in place. Date 16th - mid 17th century

NLM-FE25C4: AWL
Copper alloy Awl. Cast round section awl. Tapered to a point at one end, and flattened at the other, perhaps to serve as a tang. The form resembles that of medieval needles, but the flat end is unpierced. Bent, and notched towards the point. Suggested date: Medieval, 1200-1500. Length: 68.3mm, Diameter: 2.5mm, Weight: 2.35gms.

NLM-FE1C83: BROOCH
Copper alloy Brooch. Dolphin Brooch or Hinged Colchester Derivative with plain tubular wings enclosing an axis bar for a hinged pin (lost).

NARC-FE10E4: COIN
Copper alloy radiate of Gallienus. DIANAE CONS AVG issue.

HAMP-FE10C6: MOUNT
A corroded cast copper-alloy gilded mount of possible medieval date. It has a circular, domed main body with an off-centre integral shank. This latter has been bent as a result of old damage and seems to have been truncated. The upper surface is plain, but highly corroded. Emerging at one point is a flat rectangular protrusion perforated at its centre. The object now has a red-brown metal covered by off-white and light-green surface corrosion, particularly on the lower surface. Some smaller areas of dark-green patina survive on the upper surface, with traces of gilt around the perforation.

NLM-FE0C27: BROOCH
Copper alloy Brooch. Cast hinged bow and fantail brooch. Tubular wings with a single incised line at their terminals enclose an axis bar for a hinged pin (now lost). An arched and tightly curved bow of rounded section surmounts the wings; it is possible a top loop has been lost from the crest of bow. The bow then tapers to a collar, below which a plain fantail bears the stub of a catch-plate on its back. Fantail Colchester Derivatives are noted from Dragonby and Old Winteringham (as in Mackreth [2011] CDH Type 7), though these are usually more richly decorated than this example, whose upper parts retain the plain finish of many local dolphin brooches. Suggested date: Early Roman, 80-150. Length: 30.4mm, Width: 30.0mm, Thickness (crest of bow): 6.7mm, Weight: 8.76gms.

NARC-FDF131: COIN

HAMP-FDE402: MOUNT
A post-medieval cast copper-alloy mount with a domed square head and integral shank (c. 16th century). The upper surface is plain, but highly corroded. The shank has a circular cross-section and has been bent at the tip. The object now has a red-brown metal covered by off-white and light-green surface corrosion, particularly on the lower surface.

NLM-FDDF33: TOY
Lead alloy toy. Hollow cast seated figure, perhaps supplied to occupy a toy vehicle. The modelling is naturalistic, at 1:32 or 54mm scale: the female figure is posed with arms and legs crossed, and wears a jacket or blazer, skirt or, more probably, a coat riding above the knee, and trousers with turn-ups. The head has either been broken off or was detachable. The maker's legend -PYE appears in relief on the lower back. Suggested Date: Modern, 1920-1960. Height: 43.3mm, Width: 17.1mm, Thickness (at neck): 2.2mm, Weight (with trapped soil): 23.42gms.

BERK-FDC5C7: BUCKLE
A fragment of a copper alloy sub-rectangular shoe buckle dating to the Georgian period. The buckle has a drilled framed for the insertion of the spindle and the remains of moulded decoration either side of this hole. This style of buckle was in use between c. AD 1720-1790.

NLM-FDC335: METAL WORKING DEBRIS
Lead metal working debris. Partly melted annular object with round aperture of diameter 17mm, overlaid by partly melted sheet. The hole in the first of these objects is probably too large for it to qualify as a spindle whorl. Suggested date: Unknown, 43

NLM-FDB760: SHOT
Lead shot. Three cast musket balls (a-c) and a probable fowling piece shot (d). Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1800. Diameters and weights: a) 18.3mm, 34.74gms; b) 17.9mm, 29.49gms; c) 16.5mm, 25.38gms - the facetted appearance of this ball might suggest it to have formed part of a charge of canister, fired from a larger gun; d)13.2mm, 11.67gms. The frequency of shot suitable for muskets, probably of the later 18th century rather than earlier, is an unusual feature of this group; most shot reported is more like (d), used for shooting birds, rabbits or vermin. Overall Weight: 101.27gms.

CPAT-FDB6A6: COIN
A heavily clipped halfgroat of Edward III or IV. Clipping has removed the name so it could also be of Henry VI.

NLM-FDAAB6: LID
White metal lid. Cast liner or lid seal; a fringed edge appears to have been crimped to effect closure of a vessel. Suggested date: Modern, 1800-1900. Diameter: 24.8mm, Thickness: 3.6mm, Weight: 11.24gms.

BERK-FDA9C2: BUCKLE
A copper alloy trapezoidal buckle for either a shoe or breetches. The buckle has a drilled framed for the insertion of the spindle which bears the remains of the seperate chape. There is some simple moulding designs around the curved frames. This style of buckle was in use between c. AD 1660-1720.

NARC-FD9FE2: COIN
Copper alloy nummus. GLORIA EXERCITVS issue.

Pottery body sherd. Hard oxidised fabric with a thick black internal glaze. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1500-1800. This sherd was kindly examined by Wallace Collyer of the North Lincolnshire Pottery Research Group. Weight: 16.37gms.

LIN-FD8692: COIN
A Roman provincial copper-alloy tetradrachm of Diocletian, mint of Alexandria, Egypt. The reverse depicts Elpis standing left, holding flower, a long sash hanging from her arm, & clutching hem of robe. Provincial Roman coins of Alexandria are occasionally found in England, and a number are recorded on the Portable Antiquities Scheme database, such as NARC-675913. The Metheringham tetradrachm may well be a genuine Roman loss, however it is worth noting that the Lincolnshire regiment served in Egypt at the beginning of the 19th century, and again during World War II, which raises questions as to whether this coin is a modern loss of a souvenir

SWYOR-FD7A06: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
A fragment of a cast copper alloy unidentified object, probably of Medieval or Post Medieval date. The fragment is sub-triangular and slightly curved. One end is original and seems to be slightly convex. The other sides are patinated breaks. One face has been decorated with incised lines; one forms a border along the original edge, and the rest of the design on the body consists of two diagonal lines flanking a sub oval annulet. The back of the fragment is slightly rough and is undecorated. The fragment has a dark green patina and looks to have had a high tin content. Not enough material is present to date the object more precisely. The high tin content may suggest it was a bell. Length: 16.8mm; Width: 14.6mm; Thickness: 2.5mm; Weight: 2.62g

NARC-FD7570: COIN
Copper alloy nummus. FEL TEMP REPARATIO issue.

HAMP-FD70D1: MOUNT
A post-medieval cast lead circular object, probably a livery mount (c. 18th century). On a broadly circular thick, flat disc the upper half of a creature, probably a dog rampant regardant is moulded in relief above a torse. The piece has corroded to an off-white colour and it has been slightly distorted due to old damage.

NLM-FD6604: VESSEL
Pottery base sherd. Sherd of an unknown fabric, probably from the base of a flat bottomed vessel, with one reduced and one oxidised side. Suggested date: Medieval, 1200-1400. This sherd was kindly examined by Wallace Collyer of the North Lincolnshire Pottery Research Group. Weight: 26.35gms.

NARC-FD47C2: COIN
Copper alloy nummus. CONSTANTINOPOLIS issue.

NLM-FD3873: SHOT
Lead shot. Cast shot with prominent circumferential ridge, perhaps for a rifled weapon; the small bore would suggest a light fowling piece. Suggested date: Modern, 1840-1860 Diameter: 9.8mm, Weight: 4.57gms

NLM-FD2D45: WEIGHT
Lead hem weight. Cast discoid weight with central hole spanned by an integrally cast bar. The numeral 3 appears cast on both sides of the weight. Suggested date: Modern, 1850-1900. Diameter: 24mm, Thickness: 3.2mm, Weight: 10.61gms.

NARC-FD2267: COIN
Copper alloy nummus. URBS ROMA.

NLM-FD2024: WEIGHT
Lead weight. Cast cylindrical weight; the mass may indicate this represents 20 pennyweight, and if so, possibly according to the French medieval system of measurement rather than the English (Egan 1998, The Medieval Household, table 14). Suggested date: Medieval, 1200-1450. Diameter: 17.2mm, Height: 14.5mm, Weight: 30.41gms.

NARC-FD14C7: HARNESS MOUNT
A cast copper alloy heraldic harness mount of mediavel date. The face is very worn, and the nature of the heraldic device is now lost. The shield shaped face is 16mm long and 14mm wide. The integrally cast lug on the centre of the reverse is 15mm long and square in section. It is 5mm wide at its base and tapers to a blunt point.

NLM-FD1162: SHOT
Lead shot. Cast ball for a light musket, carbine or pistol of military specification; flattened by impact, patinated overall. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1800. Diameter: 17.2mm, Weight: 25.46gms.

NLM-FCB527: OFFCUT
Lead offcuts. Two fragments of cast lead sheet; one of thickness 4.5mm with four angled cuts; the other of thickness 2.5mm, crumpled and possibly part melted. Suggested date: Unknown, Roman to Post-Medieval, 43-1800. Combined Weight: 21.71gms.

NLM-FCAA63: SPINDLE WHORL
Lead possible spindle whorl. Cast biconvex whorl with traces of central aperture of diameter 9.5mm. This has been enlarged to a flat-iron shape, probably by the insertion of a metal shank; this operation may also have resulted in the flattening of one side of the whorl. This modification may indicate the whorl was reused as a bolster or counterweight for a tool handle, with its shank or tang protruding. Suggested date: Possibly Post-Medieval, 1500-1800. Diameter: 26.1mm, Thickness: 7.6mm, Weight: 24.82gms.

NLM-FC9AC7: TOY
Lead alloy possible toy fragment. Cast flat fragment with vegetal relief texture on both its sides. It is suggested this may be part of a scenic tree, manufactured and sold alongside toy soldiers, farm animals and other items. The tree trunk would have been modelled three-dimensionally with a flat base to permit the tree to stand unaided, but branches and leaves were rendered two-dimensionally. Suggested date: Modern, 1920-1940. Length: 21.4mm, Width: 18.7mm, Thickness: 2.4mm, Weight: 1.62gms.

NARC-FC9AB2: COIN
A probable contemporary imitation of an early medieval sceat (c.675-750). The reverse shows some traces of silvering or tinning on the surface, suggesting that it was oriniganlly silver plated to act as genuine official currency. The obverse appears illegible, but the reverse shows a devolved standard probably related to the Secondary phase of Series E (c.700-60).

NLM-FC8E46: OFFCUT
Lead offcut. Cast sheet fragment with cut edges, and subsequently torn and crumpled. Suggested date: Unknown, Roman to Post-Medieval, 43-1800. Length: 89mm, Width: 74mm, Thickness: 2.5mm, Weight: circa 200gms.

NLM-FC8207: BUTTON

NLM-FC7404: HANGING BOWL
Circular mount made from enamelled copper alloy, from a hanging bowl. Cast roundel bearing five trumpet spirals formerly coated in a (now) pale green enamel against a field of (now) off-white enamel; a central roundel retains enamel traces of a slightly more yellowish hue. The reverse is slightly concave as if formerly attached to a curving surface. Suggested date: Early Medieval, 450-650. Diameter: 29mm, Thickness: 3.1mm, Weight: 8.74gms. Comparable designs occur on a range of hanging bowl fittings from Linconshire (Bruce Mitford 1993, Late Celtic Hanging Bowls, in Vince [ed.], Pre-Viking Lindsey, 45-70).

NLM-FC6387: VESSEL
Lead alloy possible vessel fragment. Cast concavo-convex fragment, curved, possibly from the wall of a small conical vessel of estimated diameter 40mm.

RIC I (2nd ed.), p. 260, no. 4. This coin is rare due to the fact that Otho was Emperor for just three months, from 15 January to 16 April 69 AD.

NLM-FC56F2: VESSEL
Copper alloy vessel fragment. Rim shard from a plate or vessel with a very narrow beaded rim. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1800. Length: 53.7mm, Height: 52.4mm, Thickness (clear of rim): 1.8mm, Weight: 28.56gms.

NLM-FC4A81: BELL
Copper alloy possible spherical bell fragment. Fragment of a one-piece cast bell with circumferential rib; indentations in the outer surface probably represent post-depositional damage.

NLM-FBD461: WEIGHT
Lead unidentified object. Cast flat-based conical object with extremely irregular sides, perhaps cast in a hole made by pressing a little fingertip in a bed of coarse sand. The mass could indicate this to represent 4 units of a Scandinavian weight measurement system based on modules of 4.07gms, but the form and poor finish are both unusual rfor such an object. Suggested date: Unknown, Early Medieval to Post-Medieval, 850-1800 Diameter: 13.2mm, Height: 16.6mm, Weight: 16.34gms.

NLM-FBC552: SHOT

NLM-FAF117: SPINDLE WHORL
Lead spindle whorl. Cast cylindrical whorl with a flat upper surface and an irregular lower surface, with off-centre aperture of diameter 8.3mm. Though the casting is somewhat crude, this appears to be an example of Walton Rogers form A1. The unusually heavy mass must indicate this whorl would be used for plying cord. Suggested date: Early Medieval, 700-850. Diameter: 36.3mm, Height: 19mm, Weight: 129.94gms.

NLM-FAE574: BUTTON

NLM-F9BE28: BROOCH
Copper Alloy brooch. Colchester Derivative Hinged brooch, comprising tubular wings clenched around an axis bar; these bear paired grooves either side of a billeted ridge on the display face, in imitation of a spring. A D section bow bears a medial ridge flanked by billeted zones along its edges, and tapers towards an unpierced catch-plate. This reporter would formerly have described this as a dolphin brooch; Mackreth (2011, plates 55-56) lists these as his CD H type 1; his dating appears to admit the traditional late 1st-century onset of the type, though those ascribed to after the 2nd century might all be residual finds. Suggested date: Early Roman, 80-150. Length: 37.9mm, Width: 28.1mm, Thickness (crest of bow): 4.5mm, Weight: 8.06gms.

NLM-F9AE05: METAL WORKING DEBRIS

Fragment of a silver coin, possibly a medieval halfpenny with traces of a long cross and pellets reverse. The fragment is in poor, very worn condition, is 13mm in diameter and weighs 0.28g.

WILT-D2D533: STRAP FITTING
An incomplete copper alloy unidentified object, probably a strap distributor of Medieval date (1100-1500). It measures 42.39x9.15x(max)5.79mm and weighs 4.65g. The object comprises a single piece of parallel-sided sheet copper alloy, 1.09mm thick at one end and expanding to 3.32mm thick at the other, before the edges are 'pinched' together to give the maximum thickness (which is 2.54mm wide). At this point the object appears broken. There is an iron rivet at either end, corroded in situ. To one face the object is decorated all along its length with a line of conjoined X grooves, to create lozenges between. On the underside at the pinched end, the object is hollow. David Williams, Surrey FLO, comments: I suspect is is an arm of a four-way strap distributor, the terminal loop being broken. Probably Medieval in date (2012 pers.comm.)

WILT-D1DF84: HOOKED TAG
An Early Post-Medieval (1500-1700) cast copper alloy hooked tag with pendent loop, measuring 34.88x14.92x8.45mm and weighing 4.3g. The body of the tag is broadly trapezoidal with the hook protruding from the smallest edge of the body. The hook (which is D-shaped in section) curls back on itself to hold the pendent loop, which measures 11.77mm in diameter (internal 6.65mm). The body of the tag is undecorated with two in situ corroded iron rivets placed lengthways. The wider end is in-curved. The edges of the tag are bevelled, and there is a slight recess in the reverse of the body only. The pendent loop has a two casting flashes, on opposing edges. It is likely this functioned as part of a sword belt assemblage.

WILT-D1CFB6: HOOKED TAG
An incomplete Early Post-Medieval (1500-1600) copper alloy gilt Hooked tag of Read's Class D, Type 6 (Trefoil), missing its hook and probable central separate decorative appliqué. A tiny amount of gilding survives to the front. It measures 22.14x23.07x10.72mm and weighs 3.3g. The plate of the hooked tag has a trefoil of hollow domed bosses, each decorated with a cluster of three twisted-wire filigree annulets around a central pellet. Inside each annulet is another trefoil of twisted-wire filigree annulets around a central pellet. Between each of the three larger annulets is an annulet above a tiny annulet of twisted-wire filigree. Each boss sits on a twisted-wire filigree base and the backplate on which they sit has crenelated edges. To the reverse the slightly squashed wire loop measures 12.87mm (internal 9.74mm). At one end the solder is clearly seen. At the other a piece of white/ light coloured fabric is caught beneath the loop where it is squashed into the backplate. The stump of the missing hook is visible below. Cf. similar examples in Read, 2008, pp.78-81, nos.261-70, which the author suggests are of 16th century date (2008, p.59).

LEIC-C38FC1: CARVED STONE
A small stone that has been carved, possibly into a phallic form? The stone, which appears to be a hard pale brown sandstone, has flattened lower and rear faces and an arched upper face. The stone tapers from the rear to a rounded front end. The centre of the stone has been carved with three encircling shallow grooves. The object is 25mm long, 24mm wide, 15mm thick and weighs12.67g.

CORN-C1CD03: AXEHEAD
Flint flake from a polished axehead (Alison Roberts, Ashmolean Museum, pers comm), pentagonal in plan with parallel oblique margins, and lozenge-shaped in profile and in section, with a central medial ridge. The proximal end retains the bulb of percussion on the ventral face and the distal end has been truncated by a hinge fracture on the ventral face, which restricts the re-use of this edge. There is a thin section of the polished edge remaining on the upper left margin of the dorsal face. The left margin of the ventral face has some retouch towards the hinge fracture, but this is haphazard and uneven so was likely not used as a cutting edge. The thin curving profile, the narrow butt with a diffuse bulb and small lip, the hinge fracture on the ventral face, and the multi-directional negative scars on the dorsal face all suggest that this is typical of an axe-thinning flake (Butler, 141, Fig.58). The flint is patinated and creamy white in colour and not local to the area. There is no cortex left on the surface, suggesting that this is a tertiary flake from a large core, which may have been brought in to the county to produce the axe. The length to breadth ratio is 1:1. Polished axes like these are dated from the Neolithic period. Bond (2004) illustrates ground axe blade and butt end fragments on pages 140 & 143, Figs.5.126 & 5.129, Nos.15 & F142-3, which are dated from the Later Neolithic period. Butler (2005) illustrates a similar axe-thinning flake on page 141, Fig.58, No.2, which is dated to the Neolithic period.

BERK-C1A708: PENDANT

NARC-C05452: COIN
Copper alloy barbarous radiate.

BERK-C04C96: BROOCH
A complete copper alloy Roman plate brooch in the form of a stylised bird. Unusual in form, the brooch has a central rectangular plate with central panel decorated with two complete lozenges with triangles at each side decorated with ring-and-dot decoration. Triangles border the central panel both above and below, and all were inlaid with enamel, however this has now degraded from the cells. A projection from the rear of the brooch forms a roughly triangular 'tail', again with cells of degraded enamel. The spring pin has two turns and is complete, as is the extended catchplate. No direct comparison could be found in the usual literature, although Roman plate brooches of various form are generally dated to the 2nd or 3rd century AD, and it is likely that this example also date from this period.

Other examples of impacted musket balls may be seen on PAS record IDs: SWYOR-802B71 and BERK-4BE471. This could also be a flattened droplet of waste lead.

NARC-BF7682: COIN
Copper alloy nummus. A contemporary copy of a GLORIA EXERCITVS.

SWYOR-BF3EE5: ARROWHEAD
A large flint arrowhead, probably a triangular arrowhead of the Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age. The mottled grey flint has invasive working over the whole of both faces. One corner has broken off across an imperfection in the flint. The break has the similar slight patination of the rest of the piece. Compare number 15 in figure 67 on page 161 of Butler's Prehistoric Flintwork.

SWYOR-BF1606: MOUNT
A copper alloy Post Medieval strap mount dating from 1500 - 1700 AD. It is a pointed oval shape in plan and has two integral bent spikes on the reverse. The front is decorated with a border of large beads and a central domed pellet. There are traces of gilding.

SWYOR-BF1506: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
An unidentified lead object. It is a sub rectangular piece of lead with backward pointing flanges round the edges which curve inwards slightly. The letter K (or an unbarred A) is in deep relief on the front, and is also visible where it has been pressed from the back. It has a creamy brown and white patina to it and the material has been bent and smashed. The date and exact use for this object remain unknown. Other similar items have been cautiously identified as lids to small vessels such as pill boxes, but the inward curving sides on this example make this unlikely. Many other similar "lids" have been found in this area, and in other parts of the Dales. Some have 16th or 17th century dates in the decoration, and most have letters. Please also compare to the following PAS record IDs: SWYOR-7C4AD3, SWYOR-702F46, SWYOR-984228, SWYOR-7EE631, SWYOR-6914C6, SWYOR-EE1726 and SWYOR-FF63D6. Length: 40.5mm; Width: 40.6mm; Thickness: 9.1mm; Weight: 33.57g

WILT-BF1027: KNIFE
A Late Medieval (1400-1500) sheet copper-alloy end-cap from a scale or whittle-tang knife. It measures 38.99x12.49x1.02mm and weighs 2.1g. In profile the object has a slight curve. The object is sub-oval in shape with a protrusion at both narrow ends. At the centre is a rectangular slot (6.19x1.59mm) for the missing tang. Such end-caps tend to be given a 15th-century date.

NARC-BF0A83: HARNESS FITTING
A cast copper alloy strap loop, possibly from horse harness. The main plate is lozenge shaped with a circular lower knop, and is seperated from a scallop shaped upper knop by the frame of a rectangular rearward loop. A rectangular loop extends bacwards, perpendicular to the rest of the object, to take two straps together. This artefact dates to the Georgian or Victorian period. The patina is a dark brown, witha reddish brown showing through the corroson. A similar object can be seen at YORYM-E1C0D1.

WILT-BEF433: STRAP FITTING
A Medieval (1230-1400) copper alloy trapezoidal strap loop with internal projections, measuring 23.32x17.35mm (internal 17.11mm) - per Egan & Pritchard 1991, p.233 fig.147. It weighs 2.5g. The longest (outside) edge is decorated with a rounded knop at the centre and smaller knops at either end. This type of strap loop seems to be the earliest form (Egan & Pritchard 1991 p.231) and has been found in contexts datable to 1230-1400.

NARC-BEF3B0: SEAL BOX
The base from a Roman copper-alloy seal box. The box is lozenge shaped in plan and has a narrow wall running around the interior. The corners have a flat circular knop, apart from the bottom corner which has an elongated knop and the upper corner which has a double lug hinge. The side corners are flattened to allow the cord holding the seal in place to fit through. The base has four circular holes in the body.

SWYOR-BEE563: BROOCH
Possibly part of a copper alloy Roman trumpet brooch dating from 75 - 175 AD. Only the button and the lower bow survives. The upper bow is circular in section and curves backwards before the worn and patinated break. The acanthus button is just a plain projecting disc which extends right round the bow. Below it is a bulbous moulding on the front of the bow. The lower bow is D shaped in section and tapers to a point where the foot is missing. It is quite corroded, but there is no evidence of a catchplate, casting doubt on the identification as a brooch.

CORN-BEDFE2: KNIFE
Flint knife, sub-rectangular in plan, plano-convex in profile and triangular in section, with a central medial ridge. The original blade has been rolled in the sea so that it is water-worn, and then retouched after this event, as the scars on the margins of the blade cut through the earlier worn surface. The butt end has gone but the piece is well made (Alison Roberts pers comm). The knife is retouched on all margins of the dorsal face, but mainly on the lower halves of the left and right margins of the ventral face, towards the proximal end, probably for hafting. The bulb of percussion has been removed at the proximal end , which tapers to a rounded terminal. This distal end has been worked from the ventral face to a slight notch in the centre. The flint is a mixture of mottled light grey and cream colours, which suggests that it might have been derived from local beach flint. The length to breadth ratio is 3:1 which is appropriate for a knife or blade. Bond (2004) illustrates a fabricator and a knife with similar features on pages 143 & 147, Figs.5.129 & 5.133, Nos.F147, & F174, which are dated from the Later Neolithic period.

NARC-BEBEA6: PIN
Cast copper alloy pin dating to the Early Medieval period, (400-1066AD). The object has a polyhedral head, with ten faces. The four larger faces around the circumference has a central circular depression . The shaft is circular in cross-section and measures 2mm in diameter. The head is 4mm wide and 6mm long. The pin is complete, but bent in several places, and has a green patina. A similar example which can be found on the database is LVPL-54A6A0.

NARC-BEA462: BUCKLE
Cast copper alloy single loop oval buckle with ornate outer edge. 12520- 1400. Similar can be seen in Whitehead, page 22, No. 88.

WILT-BE93A0: RING
An undatable (Iron Age to Post-Medieval) copper alloy multi-purpose ring, exceedingly worn and corroding and D-shaped in cross-section. It measures 27.65x24.77mm in 'diameter' (internal 19.02x17.16mm) and weighing 4.1g. All of the original patina is missing. Rings like these are numerous and would have been multi-purpose, eg.for hanging keys from a belt etc.

NARC-BE7796: SPINDLE WHORL
Cast lead spindle whorl dating to the Medieval period, (1100-1500). The object is circular in plan and bi-conical. The object has a central circular perforation with an internal diameter of 11mm. The faces of the object are decorated with a series raised dots and lines which radiate out from the central perforation. A series of pellets are interspersed with the ridges. One face of the object has been damaged, resulting in the central hole being closed over. The object has a dark grey patina. Similar examples of spindle whorls have reportedly been found in contexts dated from the Roman through to the Post-Medieval period although the majority are typically dated broadly to the Medieval period c.1066-1500.

Part of a copper alloy Roman headstud brooch dating from 75 - 200 AD. Only the head and upper bow survives. The brooch has rectangular wings with the remains of a loop on the back which would have held the now missing pin mechanism. The front of the wings are decorated with vertical bands of ridges, red enamel and zigzag lines. There is a badly corroded integral headstud on the upper bow. It was probably a pointed oval shape. The surviving part of the bow is corroded, and the break is patinated.

The tag is of composite construction consisting of two lozenge shaped sheets of copper alloy sandwiching a sheet hook of which only the part between the plates survives. The attachment loop is behind the plate and is also made of a strip of sheet copper alloy, the ends tucked through slots in the back plate to be trapped between the front and back plates. A corroded rivet passed through the centre of all the plates to hold them together. the front plate is decorated with two further smaller lozenges forming a stepped pyramid. It is not clear whether these are further separate plates or cast in one with the front. The tag is now in two pieces, the central rivet having corroded. It can be compared to silver examples NLM-FE0AA0 and SWYOR-EA7F85. Similar to Read Class E type 3.

DUR-BD2EC3: COIN
A silver plated, contemporary copy of a denarius of Antoninus Pius, AD 138-192. The reverse is possibly imitating Annona standing left with corn ears over modius and rudder on prow, TR POT XXI COS IIII. RIC ref for the original: (Vol. III), no. 274.

BERK-BD2146: PENCIL
A lead alloy Victorian-era pencil sharpener. The pencil sharpener is conical in shape with two arms projecting upwards and outwards from the peak. These arms would have joined a single rounded terminated that is now missing. The initials 'S G' can be seen on one side in a sub-rectangular border. The object is filled with mud so may still contain the cutting blade. c. AD 1850-1900.

SWYOR-BCFE93: BRIDLE BIT
Part of a cast copper alloy late Iron Age to Early Roman bridle bit; the side link from a three-link bridle-bit dating from 400 BC - 100 AD. The object is chunky and solid copper alloy. At one end is the remains of a broken loop, now a wide U shape. The rein ring would probably have attached to this loop. The breaks are very worn and well patinated. At the base of the broken loop is a thick double collar round the shaft which is square in section. The collar is not well moulded, and appears to be triple on one face. Below the collar is a circular sectioned bulbous shaft with convex sides. The far end of this is also broken, again, the break is worn and patinated. The link would probably have extended into another loop at ninety degrees to the first one (the side link head) to which the centre link would have attached. The whole bridle bit would have comprised of two side links, two rein rings and a centre link. The metal has a dark brown patina and is pitted in places. It is 54.6mm long, 25.5mm wide at the loop, 16.4mm thick and weighs 59.95g. Compare WILT-FA9783, SUSS-413F38 and LVPL-B8AE82.

BERK-BCF8D7Z: TOKEN
A copper alloy trade token of Thomas Norris of Aynho, Northamptonshire. Norris was the landlord of the Cartwright Arms in Anyho in the late 17th century, then known as the Red Lion, hence the lion depicted on the token. Williamson (1889) Vol II no.2.

SWYOR-BCE501: ARROWHEAD
Two flint artefacts. 1) A flint leaf shaped arrowhead dating from the Early Neolithic period (3500 BC - 2900 BC). The arrowhead is a pointed oval in plan and has invasive retouch on all sides of the dorsal face, and retouch round the edges of the ventral face. The bulb of percussion is still present, and there is a pronounced dorsal ridge which may indicate that the arrowhead was unfinished. See Butler page 122 - 125. The flint is patinated to an opaque white. 30.3mm long, 16.31mm wide, 5.42mm thick and 2.2g. 2) A flint thumbnail scraper dating from the Early Bronze Age (2150 BC - 1500 BC). The scraper is formed on a primary flake of mottled grey flint which is mostly patinated. There is invasive retouch on most edges, and a recent removal from the ventral face. 21.38mm long, 17.01mm wide and 6.7mm thick. 3.06g.

SWYOR-BCBFC3: HOOKED TAG
Part of a copper alloy hooked tag of Post Medieval date, about 1500 - 1600 AD. The attachment loop and upper half of the plate are missing. The plate was circular and openwork, with a design of two concentric bands of oval holes. There is a double collar at the top of the hook which bends backwards. Compare SUR-FA3848, NLM-951104 and SOM-C79701. Similar to examples in Read Class E type 3 page 97 plates 358-360.

SWYOR-BC8DD3: BROOCH
The head and bow of an Early Medieval Small Long brooch dating from 400 - 600 AD. The copper alloy brooch has a rectangular head with tattered edges and no visible decoration. The arched bow has corner facets and a flat back. The foot is missing but the break is well patinated. Behind the head is a single vertical lug pierced with a circular hole. Through the hole is a piece of copper alloy wire, but the rest of the pin does not survive. The brooch has a smooth mid green patina. Compare MacGregor and Bolick number 15.16 on page 129.

BERK-BC85F0: WEIGHT
A cast lead bell-shaped weight, period uncertain

BERK-BC7E46: COIN
A copper alloy Roman radiate of Victorinus (AD 268-270). PAX AVG reverse. Reece 13. Sear (1988) 3166.

SWYOR-BC79B3: COIN

SWYOR-BC61F8: STRAP END
A copper alloy plate from a strap end or buckle plate of Medieval date. The plate is rectangular and has an iron rivet in each corner. It is decorated by a band of cable in the centre and at one end, and rocker arm decoration forming zigzag incised lines on the rest of the plate. On the reverse is a negative impression of the cable design. Another example of a buckle plate of similar style is NMS-09F063 which cites a reference in Norwich Households. The plate probably dates from 1200 - 1500 AD.

BERK-BC5EE6: BUCKLE
A copper alloy Post Medieval incomplete buckle chape, possibly late 17th to early 18th Century AD

BERK-BC3A76: COIN

SWYOR-BB9073: HARNESS PENDANT
An incomplete cast copper alloy Medieval heraldic harness pendant, dating from about 1200-1450. The slightly convex quatrefoil-shaped pendant has a broken integral suspension loop at the top, which is turned 90° to the pendant. In the centre of the pendant is a square with a lion passant left on a blue enamel field and from each side of the square protrudes a fleur-de-lis on a red enamel field. The material has a dark green patina. Similar heraldic horse harness pendants can be seen in Cherry (1991) in Saunders (ed) Salisbury and South Wiltshire Museum Medieval Catalogue Part 1. Harness pendants are generally dated from the twelfth to the fourteenth century, with circular and openwork examples predominating the twelfth century, more varied types in the thirteenth and fourteenth century including the enamelled and heraldic types (Griffiths, 1995, The Medieval Horse and its Equipment). This pendant is very worn so the exact shape is difficult to determine; however, quatrefoil pendants are likely a little later in date. Similar harness pendants may be found on the database at record IDs: NLM-E06E66, SUSS-F5A0A5, IOW-051DF1, ESS-04D590, HESH-EB5A47 and SWYOR-1013E4. Length: 148.5mm; Width: 70.9mm; Thickness: 19.7mm; Weight: 84.54g

DUR-BB5320: CHISEL
A copper alloy tanged chisel dating from the Middle to Late Bronze Age (1450-800 BC). The chisel is incomplete, as the rectangular shaft is broken. The shaft widens towards a circular collar which expands into a sub triangular blade. The bottom of this blade is also broken, areas of it have been chipped away. The whole object is slightly curved, something that might have happened over time. The metal is dark brown in colour and it weighs 20.0g. It measures 76.23mm in length, 34.34mm at its widest point and 6.54mm at its thickest point. Other examples on this database include LEIC-25C336 and NMGW-2C69D1.

DUR-BAAEA7: JETTON
A copper alloy Jetton dating to the 15th century. The jetton has been pierced five times in the centre, suggesting that it was probably resued as a button. The obverse depicts a crown in the centre, although it has been obscured by the perforations. Around the perimeter is a garbled legend, ':+AVGR...AR...AGIAP....A,' part of the perimeter of the jetton is broken and not all of the legend is therefore, legible. The reverse of the jetton shows a triple stranded cross flory in quadrilobe, trefoil of annulets on the cusps. The object is green in colour and weighs 2.8g. It measures 26.61mm in diameter and 0.69mm in thickness. For examples of this kind of jetton see Mernick, P and Algar, D. 'Jettons and Casting counters' in Saunders P. (ed.) (2001) Salisbury and South Wiltshire Museum, Medieval Catalogue Part 3, Salisbury: 229: no.'s 84-87.

DUR-BA57F5: TOKEN
A lead token dating to the Post Medieval period. The token is circular in plan and decorated on both sides. There is a depiction of a serpent in raised decoration on one side. The other side depicts a central square with a central dot, on each side of the square is a cross. This side of the token is possibly imitating a Medieval coin, but it is inderminate what the serpent is for. The token weighs 2.0g and measures 14.18mm in diameter and 1.92mm in thickness.

LEIC-AF1443: JETTON
A post-medieval copper alloy Nuremberg jetton of Hans Krauwinckel II (fl. 1586-1635). Rose/orb type with GOTT ALLEIN DIE EERE SEI legend (To God alone the glory) dating to 1586-1635. Minted at Nuremberg. The jetton is in poor condition, is 20mm in diameter and weighs 0.49g.

WAW-ABB413: COIN
A heavily worn silver 14th-century Medieval penny probably of Edward III but possibly Edward IV, York mint (1321-1377 AD)

SWYOR-ABAFF4: VESSEL
An incomplete cast copper alloy mount or plate probably from a vessel or piece of furniture, of Post-Medieval date. The object is probably a handle escutcheon from a large a robust vessel such as a bucket, coal scuttle or similar. The mount consists of a slightly curved plate in curvilinear shape. It has an integral loop at one end which sits 90° to the plate, and there is a broken hoop that is still attached through the loop, but this has been bent and it has a 6.7mm gap. The plate is roughly triangular in shape with scroll work concave cut outs and convex sides. There are short incised wedges to emphasise the design and flanking the suspension loop. There are the remains of three iron rivets through the middle of the plate. No exact parallel for this object could be found, but the shape is similar to sword belt fittings of the Post Medieval period, and there are furniture fittings on the PAS database of similar style, for example NMS-B9B073. Length: 148.5mm; Width: 70.9mm; Thickness: 19.7mm; Weight: 84.54g

SWYOR-AB7B57: BUTTON
A pair of miscast lead alloy buttons dating from about the late Medieval to late Post-Medieval periods. There are two domed and decorated buttons joined by casting sprue. The buttons are circular and domed and each button has been decorated with a low relief design of central concentric circles surrounded by eight ring-and-dot motifs. Together they measure 36.6mm in length, 20.2mm in width, are 7.2mm thick and weigh 21.09g. The bottom is smooth with a slightly shiny appearance; one of the button bases has a small concave depression in its centre. These are presumed to be the front of buttons which were case before adding their attachment loops. Buttons with a similar design can be seen at PAS record IDs: LEIC-0E19D7 and PUBLIC-B6E824. These were discarded during the manufacturing process, so are evidence of industry.

NMS-AB7043: COIN
Silver sixpence of Charles I, Tower mint, bell initial mark, North 2241, 1634-5

CPAT-AB59D6: SPINDLE WHORL

NLM-AB16D4: THIMBLE
Copper alloy thimble. Conical thimble with a plain basal zone bordered by a slight foot ring and an upper circumferential rib, and otherwise covered with fine indentations. A brownish patina has accumulated over the object, obscuring some surface detail. Slightly squashed. Suggested date: Modern, 1800-1900. Diameter: circa 16mm, Height: 21.8mm, Thickness: 1.3mm, Weight: 3.91gms.

NLM-AB0D12: WEIGHT
Lead weight. Plano-convex conical weight with central longitudinal aperture of diameter tapering from a diameter of circa 5mm on the flat side, to an apical diameter of circa 2.5mm. Probably a line weight for fishing. Suggested date: Medieval, 1200-1500. Diameter (long axis): 26.7mm, Height: 14.7mm, Weight (with soil trapped in hole): 39.10gms.

NLM-AB00A1: STRAP END
Copper alloy strap end, as identified by finder. Cast rectangular plate bearing three rivet holes: two are occupied by rivets of diameter circa 2mm, the third is empty, with a countersunk edge appearing on both its sides around a vacant aperture of diameter 2mm. Two semi-circular rebates of diameter 10mm separate the plate from its terminal, which is shaped like a cockle shell with a centrally placed and integrally cast rivet of diameter 2.8mm on its back. It is possible the rebates and the integral rivet at the terminal engaged elements of a clasp fastening; the rivet may equally have engaged a hole in leather. The separate rivets at the other end would have fastened the object to a strap. Suggested date: Early Post-Medieval, 1500-1550. Length: 29.3mm, Width: 16.5mm, Thickness (clear of rivet): 3.1mm, Weight: 6.77gms.

NLM-AAF2D2: WEIGHT
Lead and shell probable weight. Cowrie shell filled with lead. The shell was trimmed opposite its diagnostic vulva-shaped opening to permit lead to be poured into it; a little lead protrudes at the natural opening of the shell. Once solidified, the lead may itself have been trimmed flat. Though cowrie shells are among exotica characteristic of 'Final Phase' furnished Anglo-Saxon burials, the insertion of other objects into lead weights is more strongly associated with the Anglo-Scandinavian period. Units of 4.07gms and 4.43 gms are respectively associated with Scandinavia and Viking Age Dublin; so the mass of this object may suggest it to represent two units for either of these slightly later systems. Suggested date: Early Medieval, 850-950. Length: 24.5mm, Width: 19.8mm, Thickness: 10.9mm, Weight: 8.59gms.

NARC-AAE9F6: MOUNT
A cast copper alloy Roman, or possibly Medieval, object, probably a belt mount. The mount is circular with raised concentric circles on the obverse.. There is a single rivet hole at the centre. Similar can be seen on this database at LEIC-578615.

NLM-AAE2E5: NAIL
Copper alloy nail fragment. Cast round headed nail or stud with round section shank of diameter 7mm; the tip is lost. Abraded. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1800. Length: 15.2mm, Diameter (head): 11.6mm, Weight: 1.85gms.

SWYOR-AAD741: COIN
A copper alloy Roman coin: a contemporary copy of a radiate, probably copying Victorinus or Tetricus, and dating from 275-285AD. It is struck on an oval flan that is 16.3mm long, 13.7mm wide and 2mm thick. It weighs 2.12gm.

NLM-AAD4E6: BUCKLE

Roman copper alloy coin. The coin is a fourth century nummus of the emperor Valens (364- 378 AD). SECVRITAS REI PVBLICAE reverse type.

CPAT-AAC8E2: DRESS HOOK
Copper alloy clothes hook.

NLM-AABF51: HARNESS PENDANT
Copper alloy possible harness pendant fragment. Cast plate of irregular quatrefoil form with two stubs of a suspension loop rising from its larger lobes. A D-section member rises from the plate and is interpreted by the finder as a phallus with markedly pointed glans; the curvature of the shaft supports this identification, though if inverted the projecting member might equally resemble a vessel mount of swan neck form. However, the suspension loop probably serves to indicate which way up the object should be viewed. Suggested date: Later Roman, 200-300. Length: 21.5mm, Height: 20.8mm, Thickness (plate): 2.5mm, Weight: 4.79gms.

NARC-AABCF7: MOUNT
Post-medieval copper alloy horse harness mount, heart-shaped and concave with two integral prongs at the reverse, one of which is broken, the other is still bent. Extending from the pointed end of the heart is an open-worked trefoil with two openwork and one solid lobe. Read illustrates a very similar example in History Beneath Our Feet, figure 1255. There is also an example at YORYM-97A923.

NLM-AAA105: BUCKLE
Copper alloy buckle fragment, the finder suggests from a shoe buckle. Cast side of a buckle frame with the housing for an iron or steel spindle (now lost). The buckle frame was markedly curved, tending to confirm the finder's identification, and was of an openwork 'Artois' style with four rhomboid bosses connecting the inner and outer edges.

A copper alloy Roman coin: a contemporary copy of a 4th century nummus. It is 8.3mm in diameter and 1.3mm thick. It weighs 0.37gm.

NLM-AA9407: FINGER RING
Copper alloy finger ring fragment. Cast plano-convex section ring fragment comprising a broad bezel with the edge of a slightly sunken oval setting (the stone is lost). From broad shoulders, the band narrows sharply to a width of circa 3mm opposite the edge of the bezel. Possibly of Henig type 2. Suggested date: Roman, 43-300. Internal diameter: circa 16mm, Band width (at bezel): 14mm, Band Thickness (at shoulder): 2.9mm, Weight: 2.72gms.

SWYOR-AA9243: TOKEN
A cast lead alloy unifaced token. It has nine raised pellets unevenly arranged within a low relief line border; between this line and the raised edge is a series of radiating lines all the way around the outer portion of the design. The reverse is flat and undecorated. The token is worn and bent; it has a creamy dark brown patina. Lead tokens with simple designs were easy to make at home and had a variety of uses, they continued in use for a long period; therefore, a general broad date range of 1250-1800 is given. Similarly decorated unifaced tokens of this period may be found on the database at PAS record IDs: SUSS-8AE598 and SUSS-E14E33 but this one is unusually large. Thickness: 4.1mm; Diameter: 37.1mm; Weight: 24.89g

NARC-AA9145: TOKEN
A copper alloy halfpenny token. Very worn with diagnostic detail illegible.

NLM-AA76B4: FINGER RING
Copper alloy finger ring. Cast TOT ring. A flat band with convex medial ridge; the ridge has been hammered flat at the bezel, a process which has widened it at this point. A crude border to the bezel comprised two rows of punched dots either side of the relict ridge, the inner dots bearing straight incised tails pointed towards the outer row, possibly essaying a cabled effect. A single row of three dots continues the border on one side, while three more haphazardly positioned dots on the opposite shoulder of the ring appear to represent its opposite side. Within the field thus defined, an off-centre circular punch-mark of diameter 2.3mm is flanked by a pair of incised arrows or bird foot marks pointing outwards; on one side the 'arrow' is accompanied by an incised angular lightning flash. The impression is of an illiterate attempt to imitate a TOT legend, which has left the T's flanking the central O lying on their sides. 'TOT rings' are especially associated with the territory of the Corieltauvi tribe; the legend is thought to be a contraction of the name Toutatis, a Celtic or Belgic god. Suggested date: Roman, 43-410. Internal diameter: 16mm, Band width (at bezel): 11mm, Band thickness: 1.6mm, Weight: 2.84gms.

NLM-AA5F70: BUTTON
Copper alloy button. Cast square button with a central rounded concavo-convex boss; a drawn wire loop occupies the concave back of the boss. The front bears a possibly stamped design comprising a central globe or disc with four projecting arms of a cross within a square and possibly finely cross-hatched ground; all framed by an indistinct legend which appears to carry round all four sides of the square. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1700-1800. Length: 13.8mm, Width: 13.7mm, Thickness (at boss but clear of loop): 4.5mm, Weight: 2.29gms.

NARC-AA4D57: TOKEN

SWYOR-AA2666: COIN
A copper alloy Roman coin: a very worn 4th century nummus of an unidentified emperor. It is 11.4mm in diameter and 0.9mm thick. It weighs 0.53gm.

NLM-AA2306: AMULET
Large mammal bone or antler amulet. A rectangular sawn billet of solid bone or antler with neatly chamfered edges and flat faces and ends, decorated all round with linear saw cut grooves, lathe-turned ring and dot, and both blind and transverse drilled holes. Both ends are waisted with a horizontal groove carried all around the object; one end is additionally trimmed with a drilled aperture of diameter 2mm between a pair of small ring and dot of diameter 2.5mm. The end surfaces also bear ring and dot: at the perforated end this comprises three adjacent ring and dot of a similar size to those flanking the aperture, while the opposite end bears a single larger ring and dot of diameter 3.8mm. A series of three blind drilled holes of diameter 2mm appears on each of the opposed long edges. The larger faces bear a series of five diagonal saw cut lines on one side, and on the other a pair of diagonal lines (which run at right angles to the five lines on the opposite face) defining three fields which are occupied by a single ring and dot of diameter 3.8mm in the upper and lower fields, and three slightly haphazardly placed ring and dot in the central field; a and final smaller ring and dot of diameter 2.5mm appears on the flat surface beyond the groove close to the end. The object is tidily finished and is glossed by wear, which confers an attractive sheen comparable to that associated with textile working implements of bone or antler. Slight nicks and scratches, as on one side of the aperture and at the edge of an adjacent ring and dot, may be more recent damage. The careful trimming and decoration may suggest the object was intended to be handled or worn, and that it was held in some regard. The aperture at one end may have been intended for suspension, though the edges of the hole do not appear worn, and the notches at either end could as easily have retained a tied cord fastening. Perhaps the closest - though still inexact - parallels are provided by 'toggles', as from Dragonby (May 1996, 350, fig. 348 no. 35; Kenyon 1948, fig. 92 no. 4); dating for these is insecure. The most closely related items identified as pendants are thought to represent the club of Hercules (Meaney 1981, Anglo-Saxon Amulets and Curing Stones, BAR British Series 96, Oxford, B.A.R.pages 162-4, figure V.q. particularly nos 5 and 8). The Hercules Club pendants are dated between the 5th and 7th centuries, with continental examples most common from the area of modern Germany. However, a decorative combination of ring and dot with diagonal linear strokes might equally be of earlier or later date, while the distinction of the sides might be apt to either a playing piece or even non-cuboid forms of dice. Suggested date: Probably Early Medieval, 500-700. Length: 27.3mm, Width: 10.3mm, Thickness: 6.6mm, Weight: 2.95gms.

SWYOR-AA0CF7: COIN
A copper alloy Roman coin: an illegible radiate probably dating from 260 - 275 AD. It is 16mm in diameter and 1.2mm thick. It weighs 0.99gm.

NARC-AA09B5: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
A cast copper alloy object. Rectangular in plan, with a rectangular collar and a small projection extending at a perpendicular angle from the collar as a continuance of the edge of the main rectangular plate. The object has a diagonal uneven break from the collar to half way deon the body of the main plate, obscuring what seems to have been the functional portion of the object. The reverse is plain, but uneven with raised bumps. The edges are rounded and the object as a whole seems well worn through use. The front plate has decoration cast in relief, with several irregular shaped cells making a geometric style pattern. there are no traces of enamel of infill to these cells. This object is possibly a large buckle plate, although the lack of rivet holes is problematic. The style and patina suggest a Roman date, althougn no parallels ahve yet been found to support this.

NMS-A9FC53: COIN
Silver penny of Edward I, class 9b, York, North 1037/1, 1299-1300

LON-A9D9E8: DRESS HOOK

The body of the tag is decorated with two conjoined spirals with a transverse ridge beyond and a projecting angular collar at the junction of the body and the hook. The hook is complete. The reverse is plain and rough. It measures 24.0mm (length) x 12.7mm (width) x 5.5mm (thickness) and weighs 1.79g. It is a Read class E type 3 tag, which he dates to 16th to 17th century AD (cf. 1998, 106 ref. 416-419).

NCL-A9D4C2: COIN

SWYOR-A9CD63: COIN
A copper alloy Roman coin: a nummus of Constantine I (AD306-337), GLORIA EXERCITUS type, dating from 330-335AD. It is 16.5mm in diameter and 1.5mm thick. It weighs 1.56gm.

SWYOR-A9BF45: STRAP FITTING
A copper alloy strap slide of Medieval date, about 1250-1400 AD. The rectangular loop has a small integral shank extending outwards from the centre of the back of the loop. The back and front of the loop have been twisted (probably post depositional damage). A lozenge shaped plate is soldered to the front of the loop. Originally, this would have rested flat against the strap, but the twisting has forced it to lie flat against the rest of the loop. The plate is decorated with a heraldic design of three water-bourgets coloured gold on a blue enamel ground (Azure, three water-bourgets or). A Water-bouget is a yoke with two large skins appended to it, formerly used for the conveyance of water to an army (http://karlwilcox.com/parker/?page_id=3114). These are the arms of William Ross of Ingmanthorpe; Ingmanthorpe is one of the villages neighbouring the findspot, so this strap loop belonged to someone retained by the local lord (see the Anglo-Norman Armory by Cecil R Humphery-Smith). David Harpin has kindly suggested that PUBLIC-837EFD is a useful comparison for a wider discussion of the arms and connections to the de Roos family. There is some bright green corrosion, but most of the patina is missing. David Harpin also suggests PUBLIC-A80E28 as a parallel for the type of object. The record notes that: "Another example is C975 in the Museum of London (Medieval Catalogue of Museum of London, 1940, plate XIX and p122). Also Nick Griffiths illustrates an example with a shield shaped plate on a loop (fig. 11, a-b Finds Research Group, Datasheet 12). This is illustrated being used on a vertical strap." Length: 32.6mm; Width: 29.3mm; Thickness: 6.5mm; Weight: 10.45g

LON-A9A525: COIN
A Roman copper-alloy nummus of Valentinian I dating to 364 to 375 AD. 'SECVRITAS REIPVBLICAE' reverse, probably Arles mint (Reece Issue period 19; cf. LRBC 527). It is greeny brown in colour with a patch of a dark brown corrosion product and measures 18.8mm (diameter) x 1.2mm (thickness) and weighs 1.70g.

NCL-A9A0C0: STRAP FITTING
A copper-alloy plate from a strap fitting of probable Medieval date, c. 1200-1500. The plate consists of a strip of folded copper-alloy, with a front plate and back plate connected by a narrow bridge that functions as a hinge for an attachment. The squared ends are connected by a rivet in each corner. The remains of leather may be found between the plates. The plate probably does not belong to a buckle as there is no slot in the hinge to take a pin.

NCL-A98346: SCABBARD
A copper-alloy chape, probably from a knife or dagger sheath or scabbard, dating c. 1200-1500. The chape has been made from a rolled strip of copper alloy into a conical shape. There is no evidence for decoration or rivets, though damage and corrosion may obscure this.

SWYOR-A982A0: BUCKLE

The frame has pointed ends with ovid knops on the corners and lobed protrusions at either end of the strap bar. On the existing end there is a notch for the pin on the outside edge of the loop. The back of the buckle frame is flat and undecorated. It has a dark green patina and minute amounts of dark brown corrosion on the back of the strap bar. Please see Whitehead, R., Buckles:1280-1500, page 83, numbers 520 and 522. Length: 40.6mm; Width: 35.8mm; Thickness: 3mm; Weight: 9.62g

NLM-A92062: TOY
Lead alloy possible toy gun fragment. Cast curving handle with a total of six longitudinal ribs on either side. The object tapers from flat butt with projecting lug to a collared terminal. The object is broken cleanly at this point, where upper and lowermost ribs expand to form the collar. The continuation of the object was probably as a cylinder with a central chamber of diameter 5.3mm and walls of circa 5mm thickness. The object is patinated overall. The curving form and regularity of the chamber tend to rule out a function as a knife handle. The form would aptly be described as a pistol grip, and it is suggested this object may come from a working toy gun imitating the form of a later 17th or 18thth-century muzzle loading pistol. Such a toy would receive a charge of powder and shot; a 17th-century toy cannon of just under twice the bore of this example, made of copper alloy, is described as being 'as powerful as a pocket pistol with a recoil of a few pounds' (Forsyth, H. and Egan, G. 2005, Toys, Trifles and Trinkets: Base Metal Miniatures from London 1200 to 1800, Museum of London, Unicorn Press, page 81, no. 1.3). Parts of such toys have recently been reported from several locations in northern Lincolnshire; a heavily ornamented butt or stock is the most commonly recognised element. This is the heftiest (and therefore most dangerous!) example viewed by this reporter. Suggested Date: Post-Medieval, 1650-1750. Length: 56.1mm, Height: 46mm, Thickness: 12mm, Weight: 56.65gms.

SWYOR-A91D57: BUCKLE
A complete Medieval single looped oval buckle frame with an ornate outer edge dating from about 1250-1450. It has a narrowed and offset strap bar. The outer edge is expanded into four lobes with the outer ones sloping outwards; the two central lobes are each decorated with a set of four vertical incised lines. There is a notch for the pin rest between the centre lobes. It is a variation of a Meols type 8 buckle and dates from the mid 13th century to the early 15th. The reverse is flat and undecorated and the pin and plate are missing. The patina is dark green. Please see Whitehead, R. Buckles:1280-1500, page 22, number 95 and Meols page 84. Length: 32.1mm; Width: 45.1mm; Thickness: 5.1mm; Weight: 14.37g

NCL-A914A2: STRAP FITTING
An incomplete possible strap fitting of possible Roman date. The fitting consists of a flattened strip of copper alloy sheet, with evidence of tearing at one end. The fitting is sub-rectangular in plan, narrowing in width toward the broken end. A punched offset perforation is visible, and there may be a second perforation where the strip has been torn. Neither face is decorated. The metalwork seems consistent with that of Roman date, but a later manufacture cannot be precluded.

NMS-A90F16: JETTON
A worn Post Medieval brass English style Nuremberg 'show' jetton of Lazarus Lauffer (1663-1709 AD). The jetton is illustrated in Mitchiner; Jettons Medalets and Tokens, The Medieval period and Nuremberg vol 1 (1988) p507: No 1802.

NCL-A8FD74: BRACELET
A fragment of a Roman glass bracelet or armlet, dating to the Roman period, c. 70-120. The fragment is triangular in section. The bracelet has been made in a clear blue glass typical of early Roman manufacture, but has yellow-glass swirls applied to the outer surface of the rim. A fragment of a translucent mid-blue glass from an armlet or bracelet dating from the Roman period. The fragment is decorated with two opaque yellow 'pot-hook' decorations and an opaque yellow line running across the centre. The outer surface is heavily scratched and abraded, suggesting intensive wear. The ends of the fragment suggest a deliberating cutting rather than accidental breaks. The fragment is triangular-shaped. Glass bracelets aka glass bangles were first discussed and classified by H. E. Kilbride-Jones in 1938, who placed similar examples into 'Type 3J'. Other examples cited are from Traprain law, Syndyknowe (Roxburgshire), Throp (Cumberland), and Corbrdige. Stevenson (1976, 45) mentions bracelets of this type from Cockiland Hill (Peebleshire), Newstead, and Ambleside. Recent finds include Type 3J glass bracelets in Old Penrith and Cramond. Similar bracelet can be found on the database; see SWYOR-2A4D36. Similar bangles from the good dating context are described in "Roman Castleford" (Cool and Philo, 1998, page 189): "Numbers 225 and 227 are both deep blue and decorated with opaque white and yellow trails and pothooks and are thus examples of [Kilbride-Jones] type 3I/J". The Castleford examples come from contexts dated AD 71 - AD 86.

NLM-A8D093: FINGER RING
Gold Finger Ring. Flat band of rectangular section with the stubs of a tiny (circa 2mm across) suspension loop projecting from its outer surface. Probably incised decoration of the outside of the band comprises opposed floral sprays and bifoliate crowns either side of the suspension loop, and a further six vegetal sprays interspersed with stamped five-petalled flowers between the crowns. An inscribed legend within the band in an angular, possibly Lombardic, script has not been deciphered by this reporter; it appears to entail the repetition of some characters; the finder kindly opines it may be in Latin. Suggested date: Early Post-Medieval, 1500-1600. Internal diameter: 16.5mm, Band Width: 5.2mm, Band thickness: 0.7mm, Weight: 2.81gms. Treasure reference: 2011 T841

The patina, when found was light green in colour, the surface on the front is corroded but the back has some of the original surface remaining, which has a light brown colour. Noel Hume (1972:240,242) suggests that small mounts of this form with double pointed prongs were used on horse harness and suggests they can be attributed to c.1690-1770AD. It is likely in Britain some are earlier in date.

A fragmentary harness pendant of Medieval date, c. 1150-1400. Originally, the harness pendant was probably rectangular or shield-shaped, though only a fragment or portion remains, the upper half with its cast integral suspection loop. The remaining pendant has also been folded into an L-shape. The pendant is decorated with three shields arranged side-by-side on a cross-hatched field. The devices on the shield are in low relief, as each shield-shape provided a cell for enamel, now missing. The central shield may bear traces of red enamel. The devices on each shield are uncertain, but the left and central shield seem to bear the same or similar devices - a downward pointed triangle (harp, beast's head?) in the upper left and lower right quarters - while the shield on the right has a square/rectangular device (a tower?) in the upper left and lower right quarters. The reverse is undecorated.

SWYOR-A6EEB0: VESSEL
A Roman ceramic vessel: a greyware rim sherd. The sherd is part of the out-turned thickened rim, from a large vessel with a rim diameter of about 280mm. The external side is somewhat rough; it is decorated with very shallow circumferential grooves as well as a wide pronounced groove and is slightly more pitted. Internally, the fabric is smoother. The fabric is hard and fine with a gritty feel. It is pale grey throughout. There are frequent small quartz and grit inclusions throughout. Length: 83.7mm; Width: 51.7mm; Thickness: 27.4mm; Weight: 85.07g

SWYOR-A69064: SPOON
A copper alloy Roman spoon with a pear shaped bowl, dating from 150-410AD. The handle is of round section, tapering to a point at the upper end and the integral bowl is offset. There is no decoration. The spoon is bent and in this condition is 62.3mm long, 33.6mm wide and 6.9mm thick. It weighs 5.96gm. A similar spoon, in silver, is illustrated in Crummy, 1981, The Roman Small Finds From Excavations in Colchester 1971-9, figure 73, number 2014

CPAT-A68334: BUCKLE
Copper alloy buckle dating from 1485-1600AD.

SWYOR-A67104: COIN
A Medieval silver coin: a short cross penny of John (1199 - 1216), probably Class 5c (1205 - 1218), minted by Abel in London. The material is very worn, with most of the details being illegible. See North number 971. Thickness: 1mm; Diameter: 16.8mm; Weight: 1.07g

NMS-A66544: COIN
Silver penny of Henry II, short cross class 1c, moneyer Davi of London, c.1185-9

SWYOR-A64EB0: COIN WEIGHT
A copper alloy artefact, possibly a coin weight or coin, of uncertain date, struck on an oval flan. No detail is visible on either face, but it is slightly bent along the long axis and one side has a broad groove, also along the long axis. The artefact has a dark brown patina. Is 17.6mm long, 15.5mm wide and 1.4mm thick. It weighs 1.83gm. When found, this artefact was lodged between the balance and supporting arms of the tumbrel described in record number SWYOR-A5F2F7, this lodgement accounting for the presence of the groove. It is therefore suggested to be of similar Medieval date to the balance, but there are not enough surviving features to be able to date it confidently. If found alone, it would probably have been identified as a Roman coin on the basis of shape, thickness and patination. While it is probable that this object and the tumbrel were lost at the same time, it is also possible that they were independent losses which became entangled during post deposition movement in the soil.

NCL-A63642: BUCKLE
A cast copper-alloy double-framed buckle of Post-Medieval date, c. 1600-1700. The buckle consists of two D-shaped frames, back-to-back, with a projecting central bar. The outer frame each contains a double-moulded collar across the width that acted as a pin rest. Corrosion around the central bar and on one outer frame indicates a now lost pin. The corrosion is of iron, suggesting the pin was iron. However, this iron pin may be a replacement or repair for an original copper-alloy pin.

DUR-A623F7: COIN
A silver sixpence of William III, dated on the coin to 1697, the reverse shows the cruciform shields of England, Scotland, Ireland and France.

A Medieval silver short cross penny of John (1199-1216 AD); London mint; Moneyer RAVF. Probably class 6b1; 1213-1215 AD.

SWYOR-A5F2F7: TUMBREL
An incomplete copper alloy trebuchet or tumbrel-type folding coin balance dating from 1300-1450AD. The balance arm, the hinge and the supporting arm remain; the hinge is still operational. The arm with the pan for the coin has broken away in antiquity and is missing. The balance arm is of rectangular section with a broad groove in the underside to accommodate the supporting arm when the balance is closed. The upper corners of the balance arm are slightly bevelled and the arm tapers to a decorative, zoomorphic terminal in the shape of a dog's head. Behind the dog's head is a single, zigzag groove down the centre of the balance arm, ending in a raised, plain, square of metal which has a lozenge shaped cut out in each of the two outside edges. The supporting arm is also of rectangular section, tapering to a blunt point. It is undecorated. The tumbrel has a dark brown patina. In the closed position it is 63.7mm long, 9.5mm wide and 7.3mm thick. It weighs 16gm. An example of a similar apparatus, though not zoomorphic, is illustrated in Egan, 1998, The Medieval Household, figure 245. Zoomorphic examples can be found on the database at SWYOR-519247, LANCUM-A45957 and SWYOR-D082E0. When found, this tumbrel had an unidentified, copper alloy coin or coin weight lodged between the balance and supporting arms. See record SWYOR-A64EB0 for details. If found alone, the possible coin weight would probably have been identified as a Roman coin on the basis of shape, thickness and patination. While it is probable that this object and the tumbrel were lost at the same time, it is also possible that they were independent losses which became entangled during post deposition movement in the soil.

NCL-A5E912: KEY (LOCKING)
A cast copper-alloy key of Post-Medieval date, c. 1500-1700. The key is incomplete, consisting only of the shank and the bit, and missing the loop. The end of the shank bearing the bit is distinguished by a slight swelling and then narrowing. with further moulded constriction separating the shank terminal, which has a circular depression in its tip. The opposite end of the shank has a moulded band with a narrow collar to either side, and then an extension beyond this which probably fit into and through the now missing loop. The bit is an unelaborated rectangle.

NCL-A5CD77: SPINDLE WHORL
A cast lead-alloy spindle whorl of Medieval date, c. 1200-1500. The spindle whorl is biconical with decorated faces consisting of raised pellets arranged linearly on both faces, though the pellets on one face are larger in size. A raised moulded collar is also found on both faces surrounding the circular perforation.

NCL-A5B035: SPINDLE WHORL
A cast lead-alloy spindle whorl of Medieval date, c. 1200-1500. The spindle whorl is biconical with decorated faces, though one face has been completely worn. The face with visible decoration has eight panels separated by raised lines, five of which contain a single raised pellet followed by three panels each contained three raised pellets arranged triangularly. The spindle whorl is very shallow and curved in profile.

DUR-A59A82: SCRAPER (TOOL)
A Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age flint thumbnail scraper. The scraper is roughly the shape of a diamond in plan and is light grey/white in colour, one of the edges has been retouched. It weighs 3.1g and measures 20.46 in length, 20.10mm in width and is 7.62mm thick. Parallels can be seen in Waddington, C. (2004) The Joy of Flint, Newcastle upon Tyne: 40f: fig. 59.

NCL-A58941: BROOCH
A fragment of a cast copper-alloy trumpet brooch of early Roman date, c. 75-200. All that remains of the brooch is a very worn head and upper bow. The head is very rounded, such that the lugs on the reverse and which retain the base of the hinge pin corroded in place cannot be easily distinguished from the rest of the head. The upper bow is also very narrow and heavily worn, with a break probably occurring just above the bow decoration.

DUR-A57994: SCRAPER (TOOL)
A Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age flint thumbnail scraper. The scraper is sub circular in plan and is dark grey in colour, most of the edges have been retouched.

NARC-96DF20: SPUR
Fragment of a copper-alloy spur of late Medieval or Post-medieval date. The fragment is from the terminal of one of the side arms. The terminal is square with two circular holes, which are infilled by corosion. The square terminal measures 11mm x 11mm. A grooved collar divides the terminal from the arm. The arm is a narrow oval in cross-section, 4mm wide and 2m thick, and broken at 19.5mm.

DUR-96D137: CLOTH SEAL
A lead cloth seal of the two disc type and dating to the Post Medieval period. The object is sub oval in plan and is well preserved and the decoration is now very faint. On one side there is written the number 10, the decoration on the other side is in the shape of a heart. The metal is white in colour and the object weighs 1.8g. It measures 10.37mm in diameter and 3.44mm in thickness. The seal is probably an example of either a weaver's, clothier's and searcher's personal seals. See Saunders, P. (2001) Salisbury and South Wiltshire Museum: Medieval Catalogue, part 3, 83: fig. 24.

NMS-96C217: COIN

A very worn groat of Mary, AD1553-1554.

DUR-96B173: CLOTH SEAL
A lead cloth seal of the two disc type and dating to the Post Medieval period. The object is sub oval in plan with a rectangular protrusion. The object has been well preserved, although it is filled with soil and the decoration is now very faint. On one side there is a central circle. The decoration on the other side is unclear. The metal is white in colour and the object weighs 5.4g. It measures 23.87mm in length, 17.28mm in diameter and 4.59mm in thickness. The seal is probably an example of either a weaver's, clothier's and searcher's personal seals. See Saunders, P. (2001) Salisbury and South Wiltshire Museum: Medieval Catalogue, part 3, 83: fig. 24.

SUR-96A334: COIN
A halfgroat of Elizabeth I AD1601-2.

SUR-968EE1: SEAL MATRIX
A circular lead alloy object, possibly a crude seal matrix, although it is rather thin and small. On the back is a short stub. The design on the front is very worn or poorly cast but appears to show a central flower form in a frame of radiating lines and possible letter forms.

NARC-968198: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
An incomplete cast copper alloy object. Two oval segments, each have a concave reverse and are D-shaped in section, are connected by a short narrow bar. The object is broken at the bar projecting from the opposite end of either segment, one of which project 90degrees from the rest of the object. The exact function of this object is unclear. The 90degree projection suggests that the complete object may have been rectangular in plan. A form of buckle or harness fitting is therfore a probable function. The light green, slightly pitted patina suggests a possible Iron Age date.

WAW-9676D1: BEAD
A complete slightly worn amber bead of uncertain date. The bead which in circular in plan and oval in cross section thickens towards the centre. The surface is chipped in places. The central perforation is c.3.6mm. The bead has a diameter of 24.4mm, it is 19.2mm thick and weighs 6.8 grams. Amber beads are very difficult to date. They are reasonably common from Bronze Age to Early Medieval contexts.

PUBLIC-965226: BUCKLE
An unusual copper-alloy buckle with a D-shaped frame and an incomplete integral plate, probably medieval in date. The frame is convex on its upper face and concave on its underside with a fairly deep recess, presumably to save metal and make the buckle look heavier and more expensive than it really was. The plate is roughly triangular in shape, linked to the frame by two strips of metal with a rectangular pin hole between. The widest part of the triangle comes next, with three small circular perforations in a line to allow attachment to the strap. The corners of the triangle here are rounded and curve into concave edges, which curve and taper to a missing terminal. The pin is also missing. The plate has a flat reverse and the part of the frame by the pin hole is also not recessed here. The break is quite recent, being patinated but very sharp and unworn. The entire buckle measures 45.3mm in length, is 29.4mm wide, has a thickness of 2.9mm, and weighs 9.3g. The metal is in good condition with a dark green patina. No good parallel has been found for the object as a whole, although there is an early-medieval buckle recorded with a fairly similar plate at SOM-2A1C83. This buckle, however, is likely to be medieval in date; see CAM-44D354 for another medieval buckle frame with a recess on the reverse.

SUR-964AC2: BUCKLE
A rectangular copper alloy buckle frame with a sheet metal pin. The frame has a projection for the pin seating.

HAMP-9646F4: STRAP END
A damaged and incomplete medieval sheet plate in copper alloy, probably from a composite strap-end. The fragment is broadly rectangular, with an intact attachment end, while being broken and bent inwards perhaps around its former centre. The attachment end is biconcave, formed of two small triangular removals. At its centre, below the central protrusion formed by the removals is a small in situ rivet that would have joined the sheet plates together. The object has a mid-green patina with some suggestions of the forked spacer in the corrosion product on the internal surface. It can be dated to the later 14th century by comparison with a similar artefact illustrated in Egan and Pritchard (1991, 142; ref. 660). Compare SWYOR-7DB186 and PUBLIC-D986C2.

DUR-9645D1: KNIFE
A copper alloy knife stop dating to the Medieval period. The stop is in the shape of a bird, possibly a parrot. The decoration is on both sides and includes a perforation for the eye of the bird and an open beak. Red colouring has been used to create the feather decoration. The object is hollow inside and there is a perforation where the body of the bird would have been. Directly opposite this is another perforation at the top of the head of the bird, this measures 10.02mm in length. Overall the object weighs 63.8g and measures 33.40 in width, 25.37mm in height and the perforation is 25.58mm in length. Another example can be found on this database: LEIC-484301.

DUR-9604A2: AMPULLA
A lead Ampulla dating to the Medieval period. The object is an example of the scallop shell type I, but only the scallop remains, the top of the flask has been broken. It is sub rectangular in plan and only one side is decorated with moulded ribs, there is no decoration on the other side. The object is squashed and has also been filled with soil. For further examples of this type of ampulla, see Spencer, B. (1990) Salisbury and South Wiltshire Museum Medieval Catalogue, Part 2, Salisbury and South Wiltshire Museum: 57ff. It weighs 58.5g and measures 50.97mm in length, 39.95mm in width and 9.88mm in thickness.

DUR-95CFA2: PIN
A copper alloy pin that dates to the middle Anglo-Saxon period. The pin is polyhedral in shape, with circles on each of the faces as decoration.

A very worn and slightly bent 17th-century base silver post-medieval threepence issued by colony of Massachusetts, North America, 'Pine tree' type, dated 1652 AD on the coin (KM# 11/12). Though dated '1652', such coins tend to be attributed to the period c. 1667 - c. 1674 AD. All 'pine tree' issues show the date 1652 owing to the fact that the colony understood it had no rights to mint coinage, perhaps wanting to create the illusion it only minted during the period immediately after the Civil War. This coin has been pierced at around 6 o'clock on both faces for conversion presumably into an item of jewellery. It has suffered some losses to its circumference and is now incomplete.

No exact parallel could be found, but it has features in common with SF-0B3D62 for which a Late Early-Medieval to Medieval in date has been suggested. However in terms of its condition, it may also be more recent in date.

SWYOR-829857: COIN
A copper coin of uncertain date - Claudian or Neronian (Reece Periods 2 or 3). COHOR PRAE PHIL reverse type depicting three standards. Mint of Philippi. RPC I, p.308, no.1651. From RPC I, p.308: "these coins have always been assigned to the reign of Augustus, but some doubt now attaches to this in view of their composition, which is copper rather than bronze. At Philippi, and indeed elsewhere in Macedonia, copper is not found before the reign of Claudius, so a Claudian-Neronian date seems likely."

PUBLIC-826904: DRESS HOOK
A copper alloy 17th Century dress hook in one piece with engraved and punched decoration. The outer decoration shows a border of pellets and annulets with stamped cross hatching enclosing a floral emblem in the centre. The back is plain.

An incomplete cast copper alloy composite Medieval strap end. The strap end consists of two outer plates separated by a forked inner plate; one of the outer plates is completely missing, while the forked inner plate is broken approximately in half. One outer plate seems to be relatively complete, although broken into two pieces. The complete outer plate has a circular rivet at the strap end and there is a further circular rivet intact at the protruding acorn-shaped terminal. The acorn end is very simple with the protruding knop and a small sub-rectangular collar. No further decoration is visible. The incomplete strap end measures 33.3 mm long, 7.93 mm wide at apex, 4.10 mm wide at acorn-shaped terminal, 2.9 mm over thickness, and weighs 1.92 grams. In London strap ends of this form were found in contexts dating from 1270-1450 (Egan and Pritchard 1991, Figs. 93 and 94).

SUSS-819823: BROOCH
A complete cast copper alloy Roman early type plate brooch, dating from the mid-late 1st century AD. The brooch is circular in plan with eight small protruding knops evenly spaced around its circumference. Within the circular plate, there is a smaller central circle which is recessed, with a further circular hole at the centre of the entire plate. No further decoration is visible. The reverse bears a complete simple hinge mechanism with two semi-circular lugs and a very small rivet holding the pin in place. The catchplate is directly opposite the hinge mechanism on the reverse surface, running vertically and sub-triangular in plan. The brooch measures 22.8 mm in diameter, 5.2 mm thick and weighs 2.88 grams. Similar types of plate brooches are illustrated in Hattatt 2007, Fig. 201; cf. particularly No. 1007, athough it is unclear if the central circle is actually a hole in that example. Another example with a more moulded centre is also referenced in Hattatt (Ibid. Fig. 205, No. 1055), dated to the 2nd century AD due to its moulded central boss. As this example does not have the same profile, an earlier date is suggested.

SUR-819804: SCRAPER (TOOL)
A knapped flint scraper, made from a primary flake derived from a nodule, possibly from river gravel. The scraper is made from a dark streaked flint and has a prominent striking platform. It has been worked around its distal end and has some cortex remaining on its dorsal face.

CPAT-819324: BUCKLE
Copper alloy buckle. Double loop with missing tang.

SWYOR-8185B3: MOUNT
A Medieval copper alloy mount, enamelled in the Limoges tradition and probably dating from about the 12th to 13th centuries AD. The mount is sub circular in shape. Much of the enamel survives and where it is missing the metal is keyed for better adhesion. The decoration depicts three female figures standing in a circle, holding hands. The woman on the right wears a red robe, the central woman a white one and the one on the left a blue gown. The red woman rests here head on the white lady's shoulder and the white lady rests her head on top of the red woman's head. The blue lady is looking sideways towards the red lady. All three have dark coloured hair; the outer two have long hair cascading down their backs. The central woman seems to have her hair twisted up. The red woman has a white sleeve, or maybe a bare arm. The skin is depicted in a pale translucent enamel, different to the more opaque white enamel used on the drapery. The lower portion of the face of the mount has been bent backwards but the decoration remains intact. The reverse is undecorated and has a single stud, with a wide slightly domed head, which has been bent flat against the back of the mount. The material has a light green patina. Although no parallel could found for this piece, the general style, decorative content and use of enamel suggests that it was made at the Limoges school in France. Other examples of limoges mounts may be seen on the database at PAS record IDs: WMID-928E37 and SWYOR-ADD78. See also SWYOR-515DF1 and DOR-C06CB4. Many of these mounts had ecclesiastical functions, and it may have adorned a reliquary (a case for holding religious relics such as the bones of saints) or some other such religious object such as an altar cross or bible. Thickness: 5.8mm; Diameter: 28.1mm; Weight: 5.18g

DUR-80E6F8: COIN WEIGHT
A copper alloy coin weight dating to the 15th-16th centuries, made in Britain. The coin weight is a circular half noble issue that depicts a ship on the reverse. The weight is is extremely worn and it is therefore, difficult to see the decoration on the obverse and any more detail than the ship on the reverse. The object is dark green in colour and weighs 6.9g. It measures 16.97mm in diameter and is 3.84mm thick. For more detail on coin weights see Withers, P and B, 1994. British Coin Weights. A Corpus of Coin-Weights made for use in England, Scotland and Ireland : Galata Print: 18f.

SWYOR-80E2C6: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
A cast copper alloy unidenitified object of Post Medieval date. The object is elongated, circular in section at one end, and tapering to a rectangular sectioned wedge at the other. It has a suspension loop at the circular end; the shaft is decorated with a collar in the form of a wide groove just below the suspension loop on one side; further decoration is in the form of a single incised groove around the body, situated approximately half way between the wide groove and where the shaft begins to flatten out to a tapered point. No other decoration is present. The object has a dark brown patina with medium green patina throughout; at the hole of the suspension loop there is a small amount of bright orange corrosion, evidence of iron. The object is probably a household fixture or fitting designed to be driven into a wall or other objects as far as the circumferential groove. It may have suspended one end of a chain or cord. It may also be a furniture fitting. The condition of the metal suggests a Post Medieval to Modern date. Length: 63.2mm; Width: 7.9mm; Thickness: 5.3mm; Weight: 8.22g

CPAT-80DFA2: BUCKLE
Copper alloy double loop buckle.

SWYOR-80D9D3: COIN

It is struck on a square flan measuring 15.5mm on a side and 1.4mm thick. It weighs 1.95gm. This is a little underweight as it is quite worn. The obverse carries a draped and crowned bust of the king, facing right, with the legend I R BRI. The reverse has a crown above the mark of value V S / VI D. Reference: Withers, 1995, Lions, Ships and Angels, pages 26-27.

CPAT-807BB6: KEY (LOCKING)
Copper alloy key, possibly for locking cider or beer barrels.

SUSS-807B77: BALANCE
An incomplete cast copper alloy folding balance, probably dating to the Medieval period. The remains of the balance consist of two arms still connected to a short oval-sectioned central hinge piece (21.26 mm long, 4.40 mm thick), articulated by means of forked ends (each 6.3 mm long). The arms are slightly uneven in length, but measure approximately 55.8 mm long and are circular in cross-section with a narrowed, flat folding-end, which inserts into the hinge piece; the arms then taper gradually to a square-sectioned, sub-rectangular end; which ends in a thin, flat-sectioned square suspension end with circular loop hole. One small suspension loop link (6.67 mm diameter) remains attached to a suspension loop (1.5 mm diameter). The hinge piece has a small rivet running through its centre, with a circular rivet head on the underside and remains of a rectangular shaft protruding slightly from an oval depression on the upper surface. This rivet would have helped to secure the centre pointer and suspension loop. If outstretched the approximate total length of the balance arms would be: 118 mm. Egan (2010, p174; Fig. 142) illustrates a similar folding balance still contained within its sheet metal box alongside several coin weights; cf. also: Ibid, Figs. 240 and 243 for similar folding types. They are dated from the 14th-15th century, but balances using this principle have been recorded from the Early Medieval through to the early Post Medieval period. Some examples are recorded from Anglo-Saxon sites in MacGregor and Bolick (1993, p257), although none of the examples listed come from secure contexts. For similar examples on the PAS database, see: NMS-69EC22; NMS-464E72; KENT-DCA976.

A worn threepence of Elizabeth I, dated 1571.

DUR-806ED3: BROOCH
A copper alloy brooch dating to the Roman period, most likely the 1st-2nd centuries AD. It is T-shaped in plan, but has been broken at the end of either arm. It is also missing the pin and has been broken before the foot. At the head of the brooch is an integral loop, flanked by the arms, which are decorated on the front face with incised vertical lines. The bow is curved and decorated by similar incised vertical lines down its length. It has been damaged halfway down and some of the metal is missing. The object is green in colour, with areas of brown discolouration. It weighs 4.0g and measures 31.77mm in length, 15.79mm in width and 3.04mm in thickness. The object can be classified as an example of the Roman T-Shaped brooch, or Colchester derivative. For a parallel, see Hattatt, R. (2007^3) Visual Catalogue of Ancient Brooches, Oxford: Oxbow: 302, fig. 161. Also, Mackreth (2011) Brooches in Late Iron Age and Roman Britain : vol 1, p74, plate 48, no.12039 is the most similar.

DEV-806995: WEIGHT
Notes: Copper alloy item with patterns punched into one side. The object is flat; in plan it is rectangular with rounded edges measuring 115mm in length and 50mm in width. The sides are c3mm in length. The underside of the object appears to be plain, but much of the original surface has been lost. There is damage to one end of the object. The decoration on the 'top' side of the object is in the form of small triangular punch marks, in a line around the border. There is a small circle, made from the triangular punch marks and a wavy line which appears to run across the centre of the object (here, it is worn do difficult to tell). Perhaps this is some kind of 'practice piece' or weight or plaque? No visible attachment holes etc.

SWYOR-8069D2: COIN

PUBLIC-803028: FLAKE
An edge trimmed flake, grey and brown in colour, which has been uni-facially retouched and has been expediently made. The left margin of the ventral face exhibits discontinuous retouch with a low angle and is of edge type extent which gives a serrated edge. Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar example on p129, Fig 56, L104 which dates to the Neolithic.

SWYOR-802D66: JETTON
A copper alloy English jetton of Edward II to Edward III, dating from 1321-1343AD. It is of the 'sterling bust' type, having on the obverse a crowned bust of the king identical to that found on the coins of the time. It is Class XV. It is 17.3mm in diameter and 1.1mm thick. It weighs1.25gm. Compare Mitchiner, 1988, Jettons, Medalets and Tokens, volume 1, number 138.

BERK-802D75: TOKEN
A lead alloy post-medieval token or tally. The token is uniface depicting what appears to be a stylised tree with flowers or berries (Powell Type 17). This token probably dates from c. AD 1500-1700. Their exact use is still debated but they may be agricultural tallies or tokens, or possibly game pieces.

SWYOR-8017F1: CHISEL
An incomplete cast copper alloy probable chisel of probable Medieval or Post-Medieval date (1200-1800). The chisel appears to be broken along the shaft and is rough and irregular; the wedge-shaped end is faceted and bent sideways. The shaft is cylindrical but tapers to a sub rectangular sectioned working end; the cutting edge is worn. The rounded shaft seems to indicate a more modern date. The object has slightly shiny bronze hue with mild amounts of medium green patination throughout. For other chisels of this period please see record IDs: SWYOR-C0EEC5 and CORN-4BDAC2. Length: 82mm; Width: 16mm; Thickness: 14.8mm; Weight: 91.62g

NMS-8014E8: JETTON
Copper alloy jetton, rose/orb type of Nuremberg, Hans Krauwinckel II, Mitchiner 1518, 1586-1635

DEV-800D87: WEIGHT
A lead alloy conical weight. The base is roughly circular and 4cm in diameter. Lead alloy weights of this type are difficult to date as they have been in use from at least the Roman period onwards.

HAMP-8001F2: BROOCH
A corroded and bent, incomplete cast copper-alloy Roman brooch of the Hod Hill type, Hattatt's Class B (with side knobs/lugs). The sub-rectangular head terminates in a cylinder formed by rolling the terminal back round on itself (W.: 12.7mm). This retains the remnant of the iron axis bar in both halves either side of the central pin slot; the composition is suggested by iron corrosion at the abraded tips. Below the cylinder the head narrows slightly to a waist 9.8mm wide above a transverse ridge. Below this is a second waisted groove, then the bow. The central section is rectangular with rounded side knobs/lugs at each side, uppermost. These lugs are relatively wide before narrowing to their rounded terminals beyond a groove. The bow is decorated on its upper surface with two longitudinal grooved channels, within which are traces of a possible wavy wire inlay. There is a collar between the bow and the leg consisting of double transverse groove and ridge arrangement. The leg is triangular in form and cross-section; the upper surface is bevelled to each side. The tip has been truncated by an old break at the foot. On the leg's reverse is the highly abraded catch-plate (web l.: 23.55mm) that runs its whole length. In profile the brooch appears to have been bent such that the head is in the same plane as the foot. This is probably the result of old damage. The brooch has a dull red-brown colour but is largely covered with light-green corrosion product, particularly on the lower surface. Hattatt (1982, 89) describes this Class B of Hod Hill brooches as a common military type.

PUBLIC-7FFA74: FLAKE
An edge trimmed flake, grey and brown in colour, bi-facially retouched and expediently made. The right margin of the dorsal face exhibits discontinuous retouch with a low angle and is of edge extent. The same retouch is evident on the ventral face resulting in improved serration function. Extensive cortex cover of the left margin of the dorsal face allows for comfortable handling. Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar example on p131, Fig 57, L113.

NMS-7FF4A4: JETTON

The same retouch is evident on the ventral face resulting in improved serration function. Extensive cortex cover of the left margin of the dorsal face allows for comfortable handling. Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar example on p131, Fig 57, L113.

SUR-7FAE81: COIN
A penny of Richard I 1194-1200. Class 4a, London mint.

SUSS-7FAB24: BROOCH
A fragment of a cast copper alloy gilded Early Medieval brooch, of Anglo-Saxon Small Square-headed Brooch type, c. 475-575 AD. The remains of the brooch comprise of the upper portion of the catchplate, which is sub-rectangular in plan, with abbreviated lateral lobes and cusped projections above, ultimately tapering below towards the terminal, now missing. The decorative scheme on this fragment would have been continuous from the segments above and below. It consists of a raised cruciform pattern positioned centrally in the segment, which terminates in old breaks at the top and bottom of the fragment and widens into a series of concentric half-rings at the lateral ends, which are also truncated by old breaks; the centre of the raised cruciform design is an incised ring-and-dot. All four outer edges created by the central design have a further curved, raised line following the interior angles of the cruciform shape. The two upper cusped projections are semi-crescentic in plan and are filled with a Style I zoomorphic motif, which is difficult to interpret due to wear in this area. The lower two angles have a further raised line following the contours of the central cross and raised ridge mentioned above. Gilding is evident in all of these areas and it seems that the front surface of the brooch would have been fully covered with gilded decoration; no traces of niello inlay common to these brooches remains. The reverse surface is undecorated, but the sub-rectangular catchplate is intact, with a small inward-curving outer edge to hold the pin. The catchplate is positioned centrally in the upper half of the fragment. The brooch missing its rectangular head-plate and hinge, pin, arched bow and the rest of the catchplate, including the foot. All of the brooch body elements would have been further decorated and gilded. The colour of the copper alloy exposed by missing gilding and on the reverse is of an even dark green patina. The fragment measures 20.8 mm long, 21.1 mm wide, 7.5 mm thick (at catchplate) and weighs 3.64 grams. A similar example may be seen in MacGregor and Bolick 1993, p123, No. 14.9. Cf. PAS database example: IOW-E3AF33, with similar decoration and suggested dating.

SWYOR-7FA607: WEIGHT
A cast lead alloy Post Medieval shield shaped weight dating from about 1500-1800. It has been roughly cast and has a slightly concave base; it is undecorated. The material has a number of deep gouges and scratches due to wear and damage; there is also a roughly carved 'W' on the upper surface. The weight has a light-medium grey patina with small areas of ferrous corrosion probably indicating an iron handle. It is in fair condition and weighs 477g (just over 1 pound); it is possible that the original weight was 1.5lbs but this has been reduced due to damage and wear and the loss of the loop. An example of a shield shaped weight of relative size and weight may be found on the database at PAS record ID: LEIC-70A961 (decorated), but Medieval examples normally have a design in relief and do not have an iron loop, so it is suggested that this is a Post Medieval example. Length: 57.7mm; Width: 42mm; Thickness: 25.5mm

WMID-7FA4A1: STRAP FITTING
A cast copper-alloy strap loop of some sort, almost certainly of late Iron Age to very early Roman in date, from circa 120 BC to AD 50. The loop is oval in plan and the sides are waisted, so that the sides flare outwards on the outside of the loop to a ridge at the top and bottom. The outside of the loop is decorated with triangular cells arranged in an 'hour glass' motif, with the points of the triangle facing one another. These 'hour glass' motifs alternate between a horizontal and vertical arrangement around the loop and the cells were almost certainly originally filled with enamel although none of this now survives. The loop measures 24.84 mm long (23.24 mm long at the waisted section of the ring) and 19.44 mm wide (18.32 mm at the waisted section). It measures 11.55 mm across the band. The thickness of the ring is 4.36 mm at its thickest and 2.96 mm at its thinnest, and this variation can possibly be explained as a result of the wear caused by the internal rubbing of a strap. The ring suffers from some abrasion but is in generally good condition with a predominantly dark green patina. Although a late Iron Age to early Roman date is certain, it is difficult to say with confidence what precisely this strap loop would have been used for. Whilst it resembles Iron Age baldric rings in its form and decoration it lacks the projecting stud which are a characteristic feature of most Iron Age baldric rings/sword fittings. Whilst there is wear and damage to the top of the loop, the damage does not appear sufficient to suggest that any such projecting stud has broken off. The decoration on this example bears a strong similarity to that on a baldric ring or sword fitting recorded on the PAS database as CORN-B177A3, although that example has the projecting stud associated with these objects and is therefore more reliably identified as such. Nevertheless, the similarity in decorative style is notable and adds support to a late Iron Age to early Roman date. The decoration may be described as being of La Tene III/D style, dating from circa 120 BC - AD 50.

HAMP-7F92B3: BELL
A corroded but complete post-medieval spherical bell cast in copper alloy. The upper half seems to be plain, though it is very corroded. The lower half is decorated with a 'sunburst' pattern formed of 'rays', loops with central longitudinal lines. Also on the lower half are two sound holes which abut the central casting seam; these are joined together by a slot. The sound holes on the lower half are perpendicular to further holes on the upper half; one of these is abraded. A corroded iron pea survives within the bell. The suspension loop is rectangular, with a central oval perforation: loop - L.: 12.45mm, H.: 7.7mm, Th.: 3.8mm. It is thinned at the top as a result of wear through use. The suspension loop is set at an angle which is probably a comment on the basic manufacture of the bell. Slight squashing around the sound slot, however, is more likely to be the result of old damage. The bell has corroded to a variable mid-green colour over a red-brown metal. These are thought to be animal bells.

SUSS-7F48D1: BROOCH
An incomplete cast copper alloy Early Medieval disc brooch; attributed to early Anglo-Saxon usage, c. 5th-6th centuries AD. The brooch is a large, flat-sectioned circular disc measuring 33.6 mm in diameter, with decoration consisting of a centre point around which a scriber has been rotated around to create a circle (11 mm diameter) and a larger circle closely following the perimeter of the disc (30.3 mm diameter). No further decoration is visible, except for sparse indications of surface tinning. On the reverse surface, two sub-rectangular lugs are attached to the perimeter edge of the disc, positioned across the diameter of the brooch from one another; it is unclear due to corrosion which one of these 'lugs' represents the pin hinge and which represents the pin catch, or whether this could be a double-hinged version. A segment of the iron pin is attached to both 'lugs', with tapering pin; one pin segment measures 6.78 mm long and 2.2 mm thick with a lug thickness of 3.77 mm; the other pin segment measures 16.7 mm long and 3.37 mm thick with a lug thickness of 3.4 mm. The front surface of the brooch is in relatively poor condition; in spite of some areas having a mottled dark green patina and holding indications of tinning, an area on the front surface coinciding to the axis of the iron pin is rough in texture and reddish brown in colour. This is perhaps due to the thinness of the brooch face itself in contrast to the thickness and level of corrosion of the pin. For a discussion on similar types of Early Medieval Disc Brooches, see MacGregor and Bolick 1993, pp57-68.

PUBLIC-7F3527: CORE
A single platform core, dark grey in colour, which cortex back. This core has been used for bladelet production producing pieces between 5-7mm in width. Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar example on p120, fig 51, L19

WMID-7F32A7: STRAP END
A copper-alloy strap end of medieval date, dating from the 13th to 14th centuries AD. The strap end is formed from two plates of copper-alloy, riveted and possibly also soldered together. A single rivet remains, just before the terminal. The strap end is sub-rectangular in shape with inward facing diagonal angled sides at the terminal which project into a cross. The attachment end is broken at a diagonal angle and no attachment rivets survive. There is stamped zig-zag decoration at the attachment end leading to the break. The strap end measures 32.73 mm long, 12.23 mm wide, 2.6 mm thick and weighs 3.4 grams. It has a smooth even green patina.

SUR-7F1B80: STRAP FITTING
A post medieval copper alloy trefoil fitting with three apertures. The object is probably a link from a spur or a sword belt set.

SWYOR-7F18C1: COIN
A Post-Medieval silver coin: a sixpence of Elizabeth I (1558-1603); second issue (1561-1582); initial mark pheon (1561-1565). See North, volume 2, page 111, number 1997. Thickness: 1.1mm; Diameter: 26.9mm; Weight: 2.48g

HAMP-7F1806: CLOTH SEAL
A corroded and slightly bent post-medieval lead-alloy cloth seal (c. 17th-century). It is a two-part, probable alnage seal. The lower surface of disc 1 has a circumferential legend in low relief: '[...]AIN[...]EDAGE', with the letters 'DON' towards the base, opposite the connecting strip. Towards the centre are the stamped incuse numerals '71', misaligned, with a letter 'N' in low relief to their left. The integral rivet of disc 1 has been pushed through the central aperture of disc 2 and squashed into a large sub-oval form. The surface of disc 2 around it is seemingly plain. Disc 2 has stamped incuse letters, generally over the rivet: 'S S/D C?'. The connecting strip survives apparently at 12 o'clock to the lettering, twisted slightly to the side.

SUSS-7F1522: COIN
A complete Roman nummus of the House of Constantine, under Constantine II (330-335 AD). Mint: Uncertain. Reece Period 17. Reverse Type: Two soldiers, two standards; legend missing. This was well-circulated reverse type for nummi of this period and as such, was minted in many locations, including Rome, Constantinople, Lyon and Trier. Cf. RIC VII, Index II, p740 for complete list of mints and examples of this reverse type. Obverse: Laureate, probably cuirassed, bust facing right. Obverse legend: CONS[...] [...] Reverse Type: Two soldiers standing facing one another, each holding spear in outer hand, inner hand resting on shield set on ground; between them, two standards. Reverse Legend: Missing [GLORIA EXERCITVS]

PUBLIC-7F13A7: CORE
A single platform core, grey and brown in colour, with cortex back. This core has been used for flake and blade production, with those produced ranging from 8-14mm in width. Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar example on p120, fig 51, L19.

WMID-7F12B8: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
An incomplete cast copper-alloy object, not yet identified or dated. The object consists of a sub-circular moulded plate decorated with a central boss from which emerge several radiating lines, giving the impression of a flower or the sun. On the reverse there is an integral plate which is pierced with two equally sized circular holes, one above the other. One of these holes has the remains of a copper-alloy loop attached. The object measures approximately 14.15 mm in diamater, 11.22 mm thick and weighs 2.2 grams. It is worn in places and has an even dark green patina.

SWYOR-7F0935: SEAL MATRIX
A cast, copper alloy seal matrix dating from AD 1300-1450. It is circular, with a stiffening rib across the centre of the reverse and a suspension loop with a circular piercing at one end of the rib. The motif depicts a three-legged cauldron flanked by a hawk and a hare. The legend is largely indecipherable, but reads: "(+HE)[R I]S (NAMA)[RE POT C]OC HAR". The matrix has a dark brown patina. It is 20.2mm in diameter and 8.3mm thick. It weighs 4.41gm. Dr Malcolm Jones (Medieval specialist) has kindly commented on this record. He notes a parallel on the UKDFD, no.41133: which has exactly the same hare bird tripod cauldron motif, only differing in that the perimeter legend is clear and English, reading POT COC HARE. In 2018 he was able to add to this: "Thanks to the publication of a very similar matrix in Caerleon Museum [in Lee, "Isca Silurum" (1862), fig.12], this can now be read as + hER IS nAMARE POT COC hAR (here is no more [than] pot, cock, hare).

PUBLIC-7EEF17: CORE
A two platform flake core, grey in colour with a cortex back. This core has been used for flake production, wth flakes produced ranging from 12-22mm in width. Butler (2005) illustrates an example of this on p120, 47, 5.

WMID-7EE967: MOUNT
A copper-alloy post-medieval mount in the form of an elongated acorn (c. 1600-c. 1700 AD). The mount is slightly convex at the front and slightly concave at the rear. At the front the seed (or fruit) and the cupola are worn and plain and it has a pair of parallel horizontal grooves about mid-way along its length. At the base of the cupola the stalk is prominent and off-centre. On the rear face there are two integral spikes, one at each end and both broken. Patches of a dark green patina survive on the corroded and abraded front. The rear face is corroded and abraded. Measuresments - 24.25x 10.38 x 2.99 mm. Weight: 1.6 grams. Mounts of a similar form and style have been published by Brian Read and have been dated to circa 1600-1700 AD (Read 2001: 29, fig. 22, refs. 331-334). Find not photographed

SUSS-7EE246: COIN

SUSS-7E8614: MOUNT
A nearly complete cast copper alloy zoomorphic decorative mount, probably from the Medieval period, c. 12th-c. 13th century AD. The mount seems to be in the figure of either an aquatic mammal, such as a beaver or otter, or more likely, a stylised interpretation of a dog or lion. The mount is sub-rectangular in plan and in general is comprised of two body segments connected by a narrow torso: the front segment consists of a head (12.72 mm thick) and neck (12.50 mm thick) with two front 'paws' rising vertically from the base of the mount; the second segment consists of a wide haunch with two back 'paws' and the remains of one of two original sub-rectangular strips terminating in what seems to be a circular rivet hole to secure the mount. Two deeply incised vertical lines behind the head and positioned before the torso on both sides suggest a stylised mane. The head and neck are both oval in cross-section. The only features visible on the animal's face are a slightly pointed 'nose' or 'snout' and two circular depressions for eyes; one of the eyes is still inlaid with a black or possibly blue glass or stone 'eye'. The area indicating legs and the animal's chest curves outwards underneath the neck and forms part of the mount base. The legs or 'paws' are very short and sub-oval in section; it is possible that they were originally longer, but this is unclear due to corrosion in this area. Behind the vertically-incised lines, the torso is positioned in two nearly symmetrical tapering segments; the first segment tapers inward towards the narrow mid-point of the waist and then widens back out connecting into the haunches. The haunches are sub-oval in plan and roughly semi-circular in cross-section due to the concave curve on its underside. The legs or 'paws' on the rear of the animal are much flatter in cross-section than the front ones. At the top of the haunches near the centre, another circular depression similar to the eye sockets suggests that it would have been inlaid similarly. On the right side of the rear of the animal, a sub-rectangular flat-sectioned and integrally-cast strip protrudes with a semi-circular broken end. It seems likely that this end would have originally been circular and potentially used for further attachment from the upper surface. It is also likely that indication of wear at a similar position on the left rear side could be indication that this had another similar attachment strip and loop. The underside of the mount is undecorated, but has two thick mount lugs of slightly different thickness, both roughly oval in section. The underside near to the head and neck is flat in comparison to the underside of the haunches and the mount lug covers most of that area. The rear segment of the mount surrounding the second lug is significantly concave, unlike the mount strip connected to the end, which is flat to the surface of the front segment, torso, and rear legs. Overall measurements: 42.4 mm long, 23.3 mm high (at front), 19.4 mm wide (maximum); weight: 30.62 grams.

PUBLIC-7E3E92: BOOK FITTING
An incomplete late medieval or early post-medieval hook-piece from a book clasp consisting of a single rectangular front plate, cracked across its width. One end narrows slightly and then expands a little to an edge decorated with four V-shaped cut-outs. At the other end, a small rectangular hook projects from the centre. There is a surface design of concentric rings at the mid point, and at the expanded end. The latter is off centre, and has the remains of an iron rivet. In the other the rivet is missing but there is iron staining around the hole. There is a well-concealed third rivet, this time of copper alloy, about halfway between the central rivet hole and the hook end. There are also hints of further decoration consisting of fine transverse grooves close to the hook end, pairs of oblique grooves between the transverse grooves, and multiple longitudinal grooves in other places. It measures 57mm in length, width 15.4mm, has a thickness of 1.1mm, and weighs 4.8g. The clasp is in a worn condition.

SUSS-7E3463: STRAP FITTING
A very corroded cast copper alloy strap fitting with a looped end, probably dating to the Medieval period. The fitting comprises of a single bar which is bent back on itself through a 180 degrees expanded loop. The two arms would have sandwiched the strap which was held in place by two large copper-alloy domed head rivets, the remains of which still survive. There are other examples recorded on the PAS database: cf. DOR-7E60D6; IOW-491836. The precise purpose of the fitting is unknown but it could possibly be an attachment for suspending a purse or keys. Objects of this type have been dated as early as Roman but the greater consensus places them in the Medieval period circa 1350-1500 AD. It measures 47 mm long, 17 mm wide, 7 mm thick and weighs 8.5 grams.

SWYOR-7E14E4: SPOON
A fragment of a cast, copper alloy artefact, possibly part of the handle of a spoon of late seventeenth or eighteenth century date. It is triangular in section and tapers to a rounded end, though this is clearly not the end of the artefact as both ends of the fragment are broken. On the base of the triangle, at the point where the curved end of the artefact begins, are a pair of small, transverse ridges which create a broad, shallow groove. The artefact has a patchy, dark green patina. It is 58.7mm long, 10.8mm wide and 5.2mm thick. It weighs 9.87gm. Brass spoons of a similar design are illustrated in Egan, 2005, Material Culture in London in an Age of Transition, figure 112.

PUBLIC-7E0F41: COIN
A Roman copper alloy Nummus of the 'House of Constantine' circa 335-345. Reverse type GLORIA EXERCITVS (1).AE4, contempory copy.

WMID-7E01D0: MOUNT
An incomplete cast copper alloy Roman mount. The mount was once figure of eight in plan, but is now broken and one end loop is incomplete. It has hollow cast reverse and a rounded front. The mount is formed from two opposing crescents, back to back, which terminate in broad 'trumpet heads'. An integral loop then spans the opposing trumpet heads at either end to form the end loops of the figure of eight. The ends of the trumpet heads are raised ridges. The reverse of the mount is plain and hollow behind the trumpet mouldings. At one end is a short integral circular shaft with an integral circular rove. The opposite rove is missing with the missing portion of mount. The object is heavily abraded and the original surface is missing. It now has a dark finely pitted surface. The break edges are worn, suggesting damage occurred in antiquity. The mount is 43.65 mm long, 22.81 mm wide and 5.16 mm thick. It weighs 9.9 grams. These mounts are associated with the Roman cavalry and were probably used on horse harnesses. The trumpet motif is an Iron Age design that continued in fashion into the Roman period. Bishop and Coulston, (1993, page 156, numbers 8, 9 and 10). An almost identical mount is also recorded on this database as ESS-AB2CA5. Following these parallels, this example probably dates to the third century. Find not photographed.

PUBLIC-7DE5F1: SCRAPER (TOOL)
An end scraper, medium grey in colour with cream inclusions, which has been expediently made and unifacially retouched. The distal end exhibits an undercutting continuous retouch with a semi-abrupt angle and is of edge type in extent. The retouch morphology of this margin is of sub-parallel type. There is also discontinuous, edge retouch to the left margin which is of low angle, thus giving a serrated cutting edge. Extensive cortex covering of the right margin aids in comfort when handling. Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on p132, fig5.118, F5 which dates to the Early Neolithic.

PUBLIC-7DDE02: COIN
A Roman copper alloy Nummus, AE4, probably a contempory copy circa 355-365. Very worn and illegible inscription however can be identified as a 'falling horseman' type (FEL TEMP REPARATIO)

SUSS-7DCD04: MOUNT
An incomplete and corroded Medieval to Post Medieval cast copper alloy mount. The mount is flat and sub-rectangular with a single square-cross-section integral prong projecting at right angles from the centre of the reverse side. The tip of the prong is missing from an old break. The front face is decorated with a raised border within which there is a foliate scroll in the form of an elaborate "S". The foliate form of decoration is perhaps more suggestive of a Post Medieval date. The single square-pin indicates the mount could possibly be from an item of furniture or a casket. . The mount has a high degree of greenish-white encrustation on both surfaces; it is possible that this could indicate a degree of enamel inlay on the front surface, however it is not common to find this type of inlay on the reverse face near the mount pin. The mount measures 18.9mm long, 8.7mm wide and 7.9mm thick (including pin). Compare WAW-DEF198, CORN-631604, NMGW-38DDD3 (with no rivet) which are all similar but which have been assigned a variety of different dates.

SUR-7DC863: KEY (MUSIC)
The terminal of a hollow-ended key, possibly intended for tightening tuning pegs on a musical instrument. The key has a flaring hollow end below three collar mouldings.

BERK-7DAE84: HARNESS PENDANT
A cast copper alloy Medieval horse harness pendant, dating from the 13th to 14th century AD. The pendant is complete and consists of a convexed, circular 'spoon-like' hanger with a suspension arm and loop set perpendicular to the hanger. There remains small flecks of gilding on the outer, curved face of the pendant. For similar see Saunders 1991 (Part 1) p23 no.23.

WMID-7DAAC3: STRAP END
A copper-alloy strap end of medieval date, dating from circa 1200 to 1400 AD. The strap end is formed from two cut plates riveted together with one rivet at their terminal. The strap end is sub-rectangular in shape with curved ends and a lip at the terminal. The plates are open at the attachment end for insertion of the strap which would have been secured with two rivets. Two rivet holes remain on the upper plate whilst the bottom plate is broken and only one remains. The remains of a copper-alloy rivet reside in the one remaining rivet hole on the bottom plate and the opposite rivet hole on the upper plate. The upper plate is decorated with punched dots forming a zig-zag design around the edge. The strap end measures 34.74 mm long, 15.62 mm wide, 5.41 mm thick and weighs 5 grams. It has a dark green patina.

PUBLIC-7D9AC1: TRANSVERSE ARROWHEAD
Probably a transverse arrowhead, translucent brown in colour, bi-facially retouched and expediently made. The cutting edge exhibits discontinuous edge retouch of low angle. The medial ridge has been worked and thinned to give a more distinctive and functional projectile form. There is extensive spalling on the ventral face. Butler (2005) illustrates a similar piece on p161, fig 67, 13.

SWYOR-7D99B1: COIN
A Post Medieval silver coin; a sixpence of Elizabeth I (1558 - 1603), Second issue (1561 - 1582), pheon mintmark (1561 - 1565), dated 1561. See North number 1997.

SWYOR-7D92D2: STRAP FITTING
Part of a cast, copper alloy sword belt fitting dating from 1550-1650AD. It is sub-rectangular, tapering along its length to a terminal in the shape of a debased trefoil. On each of the long edges are two pairs of opposed cut-outs, the upper pair a curved L shape and the lower pair hemispherical. The fitting is decorated with a stylised leaf formed by curvilinear grooves and has been pierced by two central rivet holes, one in the upper half and one in the lower. The piercing in the lower half contains the remains of a copper alloy rivet. The reverse of the fitting is plain and undecorated. It has a dark brown patina. It is 37.4mm long, 21.5mm wide and 2.4mm thick. It weighs 5.81gm. A complete example of this type of sword belt fitting is illustrated in Read, Metal Artefacts of Antiquity', pages 39 and 43, figure 373.

A Medieval silver coin; a cut farthing of Henry III (1216 - 1272), class 2b - 3c (1248 - 1250), minted at Oxford. See North number 985 - 988.

CPAT-7D7AC8: AXEHEAD
Axehead of a dark grey, fine-grained stone, very hard and heavy. Stone slightly mottled, with inclusions, some of which have been leached out. Signs of wear/abrasions, perhaps from being moved around on the beach by the sea.

BERK-7D7811: PIN
A Post-medieval copper alloy pin with shank. The pinhead is globular, formed from two halves, which have split open to reveal a hollow centre (now filled with soil). There is no discernable decoration on the pinhead. The incomplete shank extends from a collar beneath the pinhead, from which extends a circular-sectioned pin 21.98mm in length. 16th century AD.

PUBLIC-7D6F96: BLADE
A blade segment, dark grey in colour, expediently made and bifacially retouched. This piece has been little worked other than discontinuous retouch of low angle and edge extent on both lateral margins of the dorsal and ventral faces. Butler (2005) illustrates a similar piece on p159, fig 66, 5

WMID-7D5A75: PILGRIM BADGE
A cast lead alloy fragment of a medieval pilgrim badge. The object is one arm and a tiny part of the body from a cross or Tau (T shape). The arm is waisted, flaring towards its terminal which is concave. The narrower part and body of the fragment is decorated on both sides with moulded cross hatched decoration. The ends of the arm on both sides do not have this decoration, although both sides are marked with two letters. These are now difficult to decipher, but one one side might just be an O.A, or inverted perhaps a V.O. On the other side the letters are even more indistinct, but the first (or second if inverted) might be an O. The one arm measures 31.33 mm long, 18.91mm wide at its greatest extent, 3.77 mm thick and weighs 9.4 grams. It has a dark grey patina. If the arm is from a Tau, which given its shape seems likely, then there is a strong possibility that it is associated with St Antony, as the the Tau was the badge of the Order of Hospitallers of St Antony (Spencer 1998, 177). St Antony's Hospital in Threadneedle Street, London, belonged to this order and is a likely candidate for the origin of this particular badge and several examples have been recovered from 15th century contexts in London (Spencer 1998, 177). Some examples show the crucified Christ on the T, whilst other variants have inscripstions such as the name of St Anthony or the words P'siue tau (Potence - or potentia - sive tau), a phrase which depicts the crutch like form of the Tau cross (Spencer 1998, 177). It seems likely that the indistinct letters on both sides of this example relate to this or a similar phrase. As only one arm of the cross survives this makes deciphering the exact phrase difficult, especially as the letters are so indistinct. The headquarters of the Order of Hospitallers of St Anthony was in La Motte (Dauphiné, south-eastern France) and was a famous place of pilgrimage, particularly for sufferers of ergotism (St Anthony's Fire), an ailment now known to have been caused by eating mouldy rye (Spencer 1998, 177). The London pilgrimage centre may have had a similar focus. Complete examples of these types of pilgrim badges show that they were designed to carry a small bell and may have been worn at the breast (Spencer 1998, 177). Some complete examples of Tau cross pilgrim badges may be seen illustrated in Spencer 1998, page 176; Figures 197 and 198a).

SWYOR-7D58D3: HARNESS PENDANT
A cast copper alloy medieval harness pendant, which is square with a broken suspension loop in the centre of the top edge, and a circular rivet hole in the centre of the lower edge. The front surface of the plate is decorated with a scalloped border within which is a square panel. This is decorated with a cross flouretty in the centre which was probable gilded. The background is enamelled in red and blue in alternate corners. The reverse is flat and covered with traces of gilding. The metal has pitted green patina. This suspension mount dates to the medieval period. Parallels can be seen in Ashley, 2002, p19, Fig: 19, and Nos. 21 and 22 on page 8 are also similar. Ashley dates these to the 12th or early 13th century; it is unusual to have enamelled decoration at this early stage in the development of horse-harness pendants (Ashley 2002, 7-8).

PUBLIC-7D4D22: SCRAPER (TOOL)
An extended end variant scraper, light to medium grey in colour, which has been uni-facially retouched and expediently manufactured. The distal end exhibits continuous retouch with a semi-abrupt angle and is of long extent. The retouch morphology of this margin is of sub-parallel type. This retouch continues along the entirety of the left margin. There is extensive cortex cover of the dorsal face which aids in comfort when handling. Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar example on p135, fig59, L140 which dates to the Neolithic.

BERK-7D4797: TOKEN
A lead alloy token or counter, dating from the medieval period. The token is uniface, the design being an equal-armed cross in the centre of one face with a border of multiple lines surrounding it. The token is complete but is slightly bent. Token of this type date from c. AD 1350 to 1500, and may be related to monastic production and control over goods and services (see Fletcher 2005:22).

NMS-7D3682: COIN
Silver unit of the Iceni, Pattern-horse type, probably an ECEN type, further details illegible, c1-43

SWYOR-7D2E81: COIN
A Roman copper alloy coin: a radiate of Tetricus I (271-274 AD), struck at Mint 2, Laetitia reverse probably. Thickness: 1.7mm; Diameter: 19.1mm; Weight: 2g

NLM-7D2A15: COIN
Copper alloy Coin. Nummus of House of Constantine, two Victories issue of 347-348, Reece period 17. Obverse description: Bust right. Obverse inscription: [---]S AVG Reverse description: Two Victories facing each other holding wreaths; leaf between Victories.

PUBLIC-7D2788: COIN
An Ironage copper alloy unit of possibly Tasciovanus or Dras etc circa late 1st century BC to early 1st century AD. Very worn and only showing a bust facing right on the obverse.

SWYOR-7D22A7: BUCKLE
A copper alloy plate from a medieval buckle. Only the front plate and one rivet survive. It is rectangular with a rectangular panel within which is a design in relief of a lion passant. The hinge end of the plate has broken off. The plate is gilded on the front. There is a dome headed rivet surviving in one corner and a rivet hole in the other. The metal has a light green patina. Similar examples are illustrated in Egan and Pritchard's (1991) Dress Accessories and date from the thirteenth century. Two similar examples are also shown in Meols (Griffiths et al. 2007, p.107, pl.18) no.851&2 and parallels mentioned here date from the ?12th/early 13th century and the late 13th/early 14th century. This is a fairly common design of buckle plate and other examples on the database include SWYOR-7198F2, SWYOR-2F6285 and SWYOR-B4EB93. However, this example is unusual because the design is orientated to be the right way up when the buckle loop is at the top with the plate hanging down. Most are arranged so the loop goes at one side of the other. A few on the database are designed to be worn with the loop downwards: SOM-FDB947, NMS-395B56 and DENO-503244.

CPAT-7D17B7: BROOCH
Roman disc brooch with impressed and rope-pattern decoration and pierced holes. The pin is broken and the central glass boss missing.

SUR-7CF525: PURSE
An early 16th century purse bar belonging to Ward Perkins Class B, Williams Class F. The bar is plain and simple, parallel-sided, and with a rectangular cross-section. The bar measures 24.08mm long and 6.93mm wide. The plain oval tapering loop is 15.48mm wide and is attached to the bar by a domed rove. The terminals of a single frame still survive, attached to the bar by two further domed roves. This object has been published by Williams (2018, 7; fig. 17).

SWYOR-7CF382: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
An unidentified copper alloy artefact, probably of post medieval date. It consists of a circular disc, perforated in the centre by a small, round hole. The disc is slightly concave and is decorated on both sides with identical designs. The decoration consists of a small, central floral design with sixteen short petals and eight panels formed by lines radiating out from the central hub. Each line has a triangular collar at the outer end before splitting into a forked terminal. In the centre of the outer edge of each panel is a V shape with its apex pointing towards the centre and terminating in three lobes. Beneath each of these V shapes is an openwork trefoil. The artefact is 42.5mm in diameter and 6mm thick. It weighs 20.31gm. Other examples of this object can be found on the database at references SUR-56E1F4 and SWYOR-E39233. A complete example has not yet been found, and the date and function of these objects remain a mystery.

NLM-7CDA98: DISC
Copper alloy disc. Cast sub-circular disc; Cliff Reeves kindly notes this is probably not a Roman coin as the finder had thought, nor is it immediately recognisable as a Post-Medieval copper coin. Suggested date: Unknown. Diameter: 20.5mm, Thickness: 2.1mm, Weight: 4.18gms.

SWYOR-7CD975: BROOCH
A copper alloy Roman brooch, a trumpet brooch dating from 75 - 175 AD. A loop in the centre of the back of the trumpet shaped head holds the spring of 6 turns (five surviving) but the pin and loop are missing and the breaks are not patinated. There is a double collar above and below the acanthus button which continues right round the bow. The lower bow is faceted. The foot and part of the catchplate are missing and the break is not patinated. The rest of the brooch is very corroded and worn, with a mid green patina.

BERK-7CD762: BUCKLE
A cast copper alloy buckle dating to the Medieval period (c. AD 1250-1400). The buckle is D-shaped in plan and has a recessed pin bar; the frame of the buckle widens to the curve of the outer frame and is steeply beveled, giving the outer frame a concaved profile. There is the remains of (probable) scrolled and / or linear decoration on the outer edge of the frame but is too worn for further identification. There is the remains of gilding on the outer buckle frame.

NMS-7CD346: COIN
Silver threepence of Elizabeth I, Tower mint, uncertain initial mark, North 1998, 1561-82.

PUBLIC-7CC4F0: KNIFE
Flint knife, sub-oval in plan, triangular in profile and plano-concave in section. Conchoidal ripples on the ventral face. Serrated retouch along the upper left edge on the dorsal face, with retouch at the proximal end and backed right margin. The flint is dark grey colour with lighter inclusions. Butler (2005) illustrates a similar example on page 115, Fig. 46, No. 6, which is dated to the Mesolithic.

HAMP-7CBE76: STRAP FITTING
A cast copper-alloy bolt piece from a swivel strap-fitting of medieval date. It is formed of a D-shaped loop with stylised moulded animal heads at the corners. Although many such pieces have zoomorphic elements, the loop tends to be more rounded (e.g. HAMP-D3AEF2), with few as angular as this example (cf. NMS-6EE657). The heads have two small, pointed ears on each angle. Down the sides is a prominent brow ridge, with a a slightly flared snout below. The field above the brow ridge is decorated with a small longitudinal groove, while the eyes are delineated with a pair of transverse grooves below the brow ridge. The rounded base of the loop continues from the snouts. From the base emerges a sub-conical integral element of oval cross-section from which the integral bolt emerges which its flattened oval terminal (7.6 by 7.1mm). The bolt, before the terminal, is circular in cross-section. The top of the loop, a cross bar, is very slightly arched, possibly as a result of use. The perforation below is broadly D-shaped. The artefact has developed a mid-green patina.

SWYOR-7CBC57: COIN
A Roman copper alloy coin: a nummus of the House of Constantine (307-361 AD). Reece period 17 (330-348 AD); GLORIA EXERCITVS, Two soldiers and one standard reverse type (335-341 AD); unknown mint. The coin is very worn and much of the obverse and reverse legends are illegible. Thickness: 1.7mm; Diameter: 15.8mm; Weight: 1.21g

SWYOR-7CAD22: PALSTAVE
A cast copper alloy Palstave dating from the middle part of the Bronze Age (about 1700 BC - 1400 BC), the Arreton or Acton Park phase The palstave has an even green patina with pitting on the surface. The total (incomplete) length of the axehead is 132.6mm, with the blade (from the edge to the stop) comprising 78.56mm length and the septum/butt measuring 54mm in length. The flanges have a maximum breadth of 20.3mm. At its widest, the blade is 44.1mm in breadth from tip to tip. The blade is narrow and tapering and the axe is narrow and unlooped; The butt is broken. The axe has a well defined, rounded stop-ridge on both sides rising at right angles to the septum. The side flanges are damaged, particularly on one face where recent unpatinated damage shows that the flanges have recently broken off. The blade is narrow and trapezoidal, widening gently to the cutting edge, with little added flare to the tips. The blade faces of early midribbed palstaves generally have raised edges, as if continuing the line of flanges below the stop (see: "The Axes of Scotland and Northern England", Schmidt and Burgess, 1981, p.126) but this feature is not present on the palstave recorded here. There is no shield like depression below the stop. The patina inside the septum is a smooth and brown layer, the butt end of which has flaked off. The butt is damaged, but looks as if it would have been rounded. Compare NCL-8C1FE2 and LANCUM-D90642. Two Bronze Age spear heads are recorded on the West Yorkshire HER from the same neighbourhood as this palstave, but they are later in date, being from the Penard (1300 BC - 1140 BC) or Wallington 1140 BC - 1020 BC) traditions. They are PRN 2992 and PRN 4186.

PUBLIC-7CA8B0: MICROBURIN
Flint microburin, trapezoidal in plan, plano-concave in profile and curvilinear triangle in section. Bulb on the ventral face, with notched right edge. Medial ridge longitudinally on the dorsal face, with notched right edge. Snapped at the distal end. The flint is dark grey colour. Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on page 104, Fig. 5.88, No. 88, which is dated to the later Mesolithic.

WMID-7CA1B7: BROOCH
An incomplete copper-alloy Romano-British brooch of Colchester derivative Polden Hill (Mackreth Group 4, flat wing ends), dating from the late first to second century AD. The wings are broken at both ends but they appear to have been semi-cylindrical and open at the back for the sprung pin mechanism (now missing), with a rearward projecting lug at the top of the head for securing the pin cord. The brooch lacks the moulded side plates on the head which are usually a characteristic feature of Polden Hill brooches, making identification of the type slightly tentative, although the semi-cylindrical wings are characteristic of brooches of this type. No decoration remains and the catchplate on the reverse of the lower part of the bow is almost entirely missing. The brooch is heavily abraded. Where the surface metal survives it has a dark green patina. Elsewhere the brooch is a more mottled green in colour. It measures 43.92 mm long, 11.16 mm wide at the head, 12.71 mm thick and weighs 6.1 grams.

PUBLIC-7C89D6: COMBINATION TOOL
Flint pebble combination tool, triangular in plan, profile and section. A layer of cream cortex is present on the lower right edge on the dorsal face, with a serrated upper right edge , denticulated left edge and piercer at the distal end. The flint is light grey colour with cream inclusions. Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on page 116, Fig. 5.100, No. 4, which is dated to the later Mesolithic.

NLM-7C8963: BROOCH
Copper alloy brooch. Cast fantail foot of an Aesica brooch. There is a knop at each corner of the fan, and one between them at the end of a longitudinal pair of convergent ribs; the stub of an unpierced catch-plate remains on the back. The upper part of brooch is lost. Suggested date: Early Roman, 100-200. Length: 28.5mm, Width: 42.1mm, Thickness (clear of catch plate): 3.3mm, Weight: 13.46gms.

SWYOR-7C8873: JEWS HARP
Part of a post medieval, cast copper alloy jew's harp, dating from 1600-1750AD. The remaining portion consists of the rounded head and part of one arm; the rest has broken away in antiquity and is missing. It is 35.4mm long, 27mm wide and 7.5mm thick. It weighs11.62gm.

SUR-7C8248: PURSE
An early 16th century purse bar and frame, complete save for one missing rove at the end of the bar. The purse belongs to Ward Perkins' Type B1. The tapering oval loop (56.75mm x 19.44mm) is fixed to the bar with an iron rove and has a grooved collar at the base of the loop. The central block is decorated with two diagonal grooves on each side. The frame has ten projecting loops to attach the purse bag. Decoration on the frame comprises two groups of five transverse grooves on the outer edges, one group of two transverse grooves and two chevrons on the point furthest from the bar, and two groups of two transverse grooves closer to the bar. The purse measures 166.38mm from the apex of the loop to the outer point of the frame. The frame measures 128.41mm across its widest part. The ensemble weighs 95g. Decoration on the bar and frame is very typical of the rather perfunctory decoration on the range of Type B1 purses.

LON-7C7B02: BUTTON
A post medieval copper alloy button with leather fragment attached. The button is domed with a convex upper surface decorated with an elaborate rose. The reverse of the button, and the attachment shank or loop, is hidden by a fragment of leather. It sits within the lipped edge of the buttonand is badly preserved and crumbling. The button measures 19.1mm (diameter) x 6.7mm (thickness) and weighs 4.31g. The shape and decoration of the button suggests it is from the late 17th to 18th century AD.

NLM-7C6F72: STRAP FITTING
Copper alloy strap loop. Cast trapezoid strap loop with straight edges and opposed internal prongs; for a strap of no more than 9.5mm width. In London slightly larger loops than this are dated to the 12th to 13th centuries. This example can have had little mechanical strength. Suggested date: Medieval, 1150-1250. Length: 13.8mm, Width/Height: 15.9mm, Thickness: 1.3mm, Weight: 0.64gms

BERK-7C65D1: COIN
An incomplete silver groat of Edward III (AD 1327-1377), pre-treaty series E AD 1351-1361. London mint. Unbarred A's and N's. North No.1163-1164.

PUBLIC-7C6390: FLAKE
Flint edge-trimmed flake, pear shape in plan, plano-convex in profile and triangular in section. Bulb snapped off the ventral face, with retouch along the left and right edges and notched right edge. Medial ridge longitudinally on the dorsal face, with notched right edge. Broken at the distal end. The flint is light to dark grey colour with lighter inclusions. Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar example on page 129, Fig. 56, No. L97, which is dated to the Neolithic.

NLM-7C6184: BUCKLE
Copper alloy buckle. Cast D shaped loop with a collared knop at one end; an offset bar at the other end retains a pin probably made by folding thin sheet metal. The display side bears file and finishing marks with scant sign of subsequent wear; the knop has angular surfaces rather than rounded, and is only half round, so the object was intended to lie flat against a strap. Suggested date: Late Medieval, 1350-1400. Length: 24.1mm, Width: 23.5mm, Thickness: 3.1mm, Weight: 2.24gms.

NLM-7C5074: BUCKLE
Copper alloy buckle. Cast single looped buckle with oval frame of rounded section and a narrowed strap bar. The object is very worn with a rounded section, and is indented outside the mid point of the frame, though possibly by post-depositional damage. Suggested date: Probably Medieval, 1200-1500. Length: 18.1mm, Height: 23.3mm, Thickness: 3.7mm, Weight: 2.74gm

SWYOR-7C4EA1: COIN
A Roman copper alloy coin: a nummus of The House of Constantine. Reece period 17 (330-348 AD); GLORIA EXERCITVS, Two soldiers and two standards reverse type (330-335 AD); Trier mint. The edges of the coin are worn and nearly all of the reverse legend is missing. Thickness: 1.6mm; Diameter: 15.5mm; Weight: 1.62g

PUBLIC-7C3EB6: CORE
Flint pebble single-platform microcore, oval in plan and lozenge in profile. Flakes removed from 200 degrees around the axis of the platform. A layer of grey cortex is present on the remaining section from the platform to the base. The flint is dark grey brown colour with light grey flecks and inclusions. Butler (2005) illustrates a similar example on page 85, Fig. 30, No. 5, which is dated to the Mesolithic.

HAMP-7C3E74: BROOCH
A small cast copper-alloy Roman Colchester derivative brooch with a double pierced lug spring attachment, incomplete in so far as it is missing its spring mechanism and pin, dating to the 1st century AD. The double pierced lug is situated behind the head as is characteristic of this type, with a cusping at the front between the perforations. The axis bar and sprung pin are missing, including the chord and coils. The wings are intact, short, and curved in cross-section. They are decorated with a transverse groove which creates a ridge at the tip. The head is narrowed as it meets the bow. The bow is broadly triangular in cross-section, and seemingly plain. The bow is 4.85mm wide at the back of the head and tapers gradually to a width of 1.4mm at the foot. It travels at from an angle of just over ninety degrees at the head in a gradual curve such that the foot is in the same plane as the head. The bow flattens and expands seamlessly into the sub-triangular catch-plate whose fold survives well (Web: 9.35mm). Three nicks at the foot on the upper surface are probably decorative. Where it survives this brooch has a dull grey patina over a slightly corroded mid-green metal.

NLM-7C3D03: FERRULE
Copper alloy probable ferrule. Cast tubular mount with a single fastening hole of diameter 2.2mm. A decorative design comprises floral or vegetal scrolls against a ground of finely spaced vertical lines, with narrow upper and lower borders. Now flattened. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1700. Length: 16.2mm, Height: 13.1mm, Thickness: 2.4mm, Weight: 2.44gms.

Silver sixpence of Elizabeth I, Tower mint, bell initial mark, North 2015, 1583.

NCL-7C2FC5: COIN
A silver halfgroat of Charles I, group B, dating 1631-1632. North no 2250. There is a very straight cut or crack into the coin from the 3 o'clock position.

NLM-7C2797: SPOON
Silver spoon. Cast spoon fragment, comprising a leaf shaped bowl with a short oval rib below the bowl which continues as a flat and narrow stem. The spoon bowl has been hammered flat, and most of the stem has been removed by forceful twisting which has left a thin tapered and twisted stub attached to the bowl. The material is now very thin, and this may be the result of wear in use rather than the hammering of the object, as silver spoons can acquire sharp edges with prolonged use. Pewter spoons from London generally exhibit broader bowls, so this example is probably later. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1700-1800. Length: 53.1mm, Width: 23.2mm, Thickness: 0.6mm, Weight: 3.44gms.

PUBLIC-7C1DA2: KNIFE
Flint pebble knife, hook shape in plan, sub-rectangular in profile and curvilinear triangle in section. Bulb on ventral face. Retouch along the left edge on dorsal face, with naturally backed right margin. The flint has signs of re-use due to the retouch post patination. There is cream brown cortex present on the proximal end. The flint is honey yellow colour with extensive patination. Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on page 145, Fig. 5.131, No. 24, which is dated to the Beaker period.

NLM-7C11C4: MOUNT
Copper alloy probable mount. Cast mount comprising a knop with lug and the stub of a rivet in situ, a hemispherical concavo-convex boss with a textured display face, and a further knop with a flattened rivet or rove on its back and a hook below it. This object differs from later medieval purse hangers and pendent mounts, though the fastening with separate rivets might be seen as a medieval trait. The form may relate it to sword hanging suites of 16th to 17th-century date, though this may have been intended for a distinct purpose. Suggested date: Early Post-Medieval, 1500-1600. Length: 35.3mm, Width: 13.2mm, Thickness: 5.2mm, Weight: 4.60gms.

SWYOR-7C1083: JETTON
A copper alloy Post Medieval jetton dating from 1583 - 1601 AD, issued by Wolf Lauffer I, rose orb type, "WER GOT VERTRAVT HATWOL" reverse. See Mitchiner number 1675. The jetton is slightly bent and the edge is damaged in places, but it is clear and in otherwise good condition.

NCL-7C0252: COIN
A silver penny of Edward I, class 1c, dating to 1279. North no 1012.

HAMP-7C0162: STRAP FITTING
A worn but complete cast copper-alloy post-medieval strap-mount. The mount is longitudinally asymmetrical, terminating in a moulded trifoliate head, with large central fleur. Below this the body expands into a piriform body which terminates in a rounded knop. The upper surface of the main body is moulded with scrolled designs along the edges terminating in curls above the terminal knop. Between these is a central longitudinal row of conjoined pellets. On the reverse is a pair of pointed lugs bent out away from each other; they are located at the junctions of the terminals with the main body; one has been broken. The reverse is otherwise flat and plain. The mount is of a dark red-brown colour with a dark-green patina, largely on the reverse, with patches of gilt in the recessed mouldings of the upper surface. In its form and dimensions the object is similar to mounts illustrated in Read (2001, 34; ref. 285ff.) which are dated to around the 17th century.

NMS-7BF2E2: COIN
Silver halfgroat of James I, Tower, escallop initial mark, North 2104, 1606-7

CPAT-7BF0E1: HARNESS FITTING
Small, irregularly-shaped piece of bronze with a small hole through it and a casting seam along the edge.

SWYOR-7BE727: BUCKLE
A post medieval, cast copper alloy, rectangular shoe or knee buckle, dating from 1690-1720AD. The buckle frame is curved and the longer edges are thicker in the centre, where they are drilled to take a separate, ferrous spindle. This spindle has broken away from the rest of the buckle. It carries a copper alloy, openwork anchor chape in the shape of a truncated triangle with convex inner sides. The outer edge of the chape carries a single, inward pointing, triangular spike. There is a single, triangular tongue on the opposite side of the spindle. The buckle is undecorated and displays a patchy, dark green patina. It is 34.2mm long, 26.6mm wide and 7.8mm thick. It weighs 6.5gm. An identical buckle is illustrated in Whitehead, 2003, Buckles, 1250-1800, page 103, number 662.

PUBLIC-7BD3F7: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Flint pebble end-scraper, oval in plan, lozenge in profile and hexagonal in section. Bulb on ventral face, with notched right edge. A layer of cream cortex is present on the dorsal face following the right and distal end except where scraper retouch occurs along the distal end. Notched on the left edge on dorsal face. The flint is caramel brown colour with brown ribbons and light inclusions. Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on page 108, Fig. 5.92, No. 119, which is dated to the Mesolithic.

NLM-7BCB13: COIN
Silver coin. Possibly a penny of Edward III (1327-1377) or later, probably clipped. Obverse description: Probably facing bust. Reverse description: Long cross, three pellets in each angle, struck partly off flan. Possible element of saltire punctuation at edge but no legend remains. Diameter: 15.9mm, Weight: 0.98gms. Suggested date: late Medieval, 1327-1485

NLM-7BB8E4: BUCKLE
Copper alloy, possibly tinned or with high tin content, buckle. Cast decorative rectangular buckle. The frame is decorated with curling scrolls, and a fleur de lis knop projected from each corner (one knop lost); further fleurs project less markedly from the mid point of each end of the buckle. A stepped pin is retained on a narrowed central bar. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1700. Length: 38.4mm, Height: 31.7mm, Thickness: 1.7mm, Weight: 6.73gms.

PUBLIC-7BB501: FLAKE
Flint edged-flake, oval in plan, lozenge in profile and triangular in section. Bulb on ventral face. Serrated edge retouch along the right edge on the dorsal face. The flint is caramel brown colour with lighter inclusions. Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar example on page 129, Fig. 56, No. L104, which is dated to the Neolithic.

PUBLIC-7B9D93: FLAKE
Flint edged-flake, oval in plan, pentagonal in profile and curvilinear parallelogram in section. bulb on ventral face, with retouch along the left edge. Retouch on the left edge and distal end on dorsal face. The flint is grey colour with lighter inclusions. Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar example on page 129, Fig. 56, No. L104, which is dated to the Neolithic.

NMS-7B9BC4: COIN
Fragmentary cut halfpenny of Henry III, voided long cross, probably class 3, moneyer Henri of London , 1248-50

NLM-7B9B83: COIN
Silver coin. Possible threepence of Elizabeth I (1558-1603), dated 157?, issue of 1571-1579. Obverse description: Almost entirely smooth, save for one letter and a segment of circle. Obverse inscription: [--]L[--] Reverse description: Shield of Arms with long cross, dated 157-. Diameter: 19.1mm, Weight: 1.06gms.

WMID-7B9515: MOUNT
A cast copper-alloy mount in the form of an eagle with its wings spread. The mount is post-medieval to modern in date, probably 18th century and is probably from the lid of a vessel. The bird's head is angled to the left and feather's are represented by moulded detail on the top and bottom. The mount is clearly broken and two lugs where the bird's feet would be were presumably for attachment. Much of the surface metal retains traces of a black paint. The mount measures 50.72 mm long, 50.31 mm wide 16.03 mm thick and weighs 45.1 grams. Several similar examples are recorded on the PAS database (see for example BH-C3F578 and DENO-C50D2), and most are clearly of post-medieval to modern date. The latter example also has the traces of black paint applied. An example of an eagle mount in the same pose is illustrated in Murawski's "Benet's Artefacts" (2nd ed 2003, p.171, no. RO9-0403) and is provided with a Roman date. This often leads to the assumption that these objects are always Roman, but the black paint on this example is certainly indicative of a post-medieval/modern and not Roman date.

NLM-7B8741: FINGER RING
Copper alloy finger ring. Ring probably cut neatly from cast sheet, with its shoulders decorated by a simple lattice or grid pattern, and with a plain smooth flat rectangular bezel. The edge of the grid decoration of the shoulders is indented, and on one side this marks the position where one end of the band fitted snugly into a rebate. When closed (an operation not attempted by this reporter), the join would become invisible, as it would be concealed by the lines of the grid pattern. The grid may incorporate a monogram or cipher; the letters W, M and A could be concealed in the lattice, much as the closure itself was secret. This idiosyncratic piece would appear to be made in a craft rather than an industrial setting, and is, with the exception of a kink in its band, in good condition. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1700-1800. Internal diameter: 19.3mm, Band width {at bezel): 10.5mm, Band thickness: 1.2mm, Weight: 2.60gms.

SWYOR-7B83E7: BUCKLE
A medieval, cast copper alloy buckle with integral buckle plate, dating from 1250-1350AD. The buckle frame is oval and thicker on the outer edge, which has a pin groove in the centre. The plate tapers slightly from the inner edge of the frame to a blunt, squared-off end. Two copper alloy rivets remain in place in the centre of the plate and there is a depression close to the buckle frame that either held a third rivet, or was the hole where the pin was attached. These three holes are arranged in a straight line down the centre of the plate. The pin is missing. There are small traces of gilding on the plate; the buckle is otherwise quite corroded and displays a rough, light green patina. It is 45.7mm long, 21.4mm wide and 8mm thick. It weighs 7.95gm. A similar buckle is illustrated in Egan & Pritchard, Dress Accessories, 1150-1350, page 79, number 321.

PUBLIC-7B7660: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Flint pebble thumbnail-scraper, oval in plan, plano-convex in profile and rectangular in section. Bulb on ventral face. Retouch approximately 320 degrees around the margin, leaving half of the left edge on the dorsal face. The flint is dark grey colour with lighter flecks. Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on page 145, Fig. 5.131, N0. 5, which is dated to the Beaker period.

NLM-7B75F1: KEY (LOCKING)
Copper alloy and Iron probable slide key handle. A cast circular loop and moulded square section handle retains the stub of a shank between two rectangular plates which project from the lower part of the handle. Suggested date: Roman, 43-410. Length: 49.2mm, Diameter (loop): 22.9mm, Width (clear of loop): 12.7mm, Thickness: 9.2mm, Weight: 24.16gms.

NLM-7B63A2: SPINDLE WHORL
Lead spindle whorl. Cast biconvex whorl with a central aperture of diameter 10mm and decoration comprising ten curving radial ribs on one side; these would give a striking effect as the whorl turned - at least until masked by the material being spun. Patinated overall. The mass of this whorl may suggest it was intended to spin cord rather than a yarn. Suggested date: Medieval, 1100-1300. Diameter: 27.6mm, Height: 12.6mm, Weight: 48.76gms.

PUBLIC-7B5E57: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Flint nodular horseshoe scraper, rectangular in plan, plano-convex in profile and section. Conchoidal ripples on ventral face. Scraper retouch 320 degrees around the margin, leaving the left distal end. The flint is dark brown colour.

CORN-71EA74: VESSEL
Pottery body sherd made of gabbroic clay that weathers over the gabbro outcrop on the Lizard in Cornwall. The fabric has inclusions of pale felspars and dark augite, but is also an admixture with large inclusions of other materials such as quartz which are not natural to the gabbro clay. The sherd is mid-brown in colour on its exterior and on its interior, with a dark brown core. This gabbroic admixture fabric is seen in local Bronze Age vessels, dating from c.2100-1150 BC (Henrietta Quinnell, forthcoming).

CORN-71CAF7: VESSEL
Pottery body sherd with an impressed twisted cord running across the width of the exterior of the sherd, with a single twist and possibly a parallel twist above it, but there the surface of the sherd is missing. The fabric has inclusions of pale felspars and mica, but is also an admixture with large inclusions of other materials not natural to the original clay. The sherd is mid to dark brown in colour on its exterior and on its interior. This admixture fabric and type of decoration are seen on local Bronze Age vessels, from the Trevisker Ware tradition, dating from c.1800-1200 BC (Henrietta Quinnell, forthcoming). Nowakowski (1991) illustrates an example of an impressed single-twist cord on a Trevisker Ware vessel from Trethellan, Newquay on page 118, Fig.49, No.53, which is dated from c.1500-1200 BC.

CORN-716151: VESSEL
Pottery body sherd with a small perforated vertical lug on the exterior of the sherd, now broken so that the perforation remains as an open band between two raised areas. The lower part of the applied lug has been broken in half to expose the surface of the sherd beneath. This sherd is made of gabbroic clay that weathers over the gabbro outcrop on the Lizard in Cornwall. The fabric has inclusions of pale felspars and dark augite, but is also an admixture with large inclusions of other materials such as quartz which are not natural to the gabbro clay. The sherd is orange in colour on its exterior and mid to dark brown on its interior. This gabbroic admixture fabric and type of lug are seen on local Bronze Age vessels, from the Trevisker Ware tradition, dating from c.1800-1200 BC (Henrietta Quinnell, forthcoming). Nowakowski (1991) illustrates examples of perforated lugs on Trevisker Ware vessels from Trethellan, Newquay on pages 118 & 120, Figs.49 & 51, Nos.54 & 70, which are dated from c.1500-1200 BC.

CORN-7145F5: VESSEL
Pottery body sherd made of coarse admixture clay. The fabric has fine inclusions of pale felspars and mica, and additional larger inclusions such as quartz not natural to the clay to make it an admixture. The colour is mid to dark brown on the exterior and on the interior of the sherd, with a dark brown core. This type of admixture fabric is seen in Bronze Age vessels, dating from c.2100-1150 BC (Henrietta Quinnell, forthcoming).

CORN-70E661: VESSEL
Pottery body sherd made of coarse admixture clay. The fabric has fine inclusions of pale felspars and mica, and additional larger inclusions such as quartz not natural to the clay to make it an admixture. The colour is mid to dark brown on the exterior and on the interior of the sherd. This type of admixture fabric is seen in Bronze Age vessels, dating from c.2100-1150 BC (Henrietta Quinnell, forthcoming).

PUBLIC-709C51: DENTICULATE
A denticulate, medium grey in colour with light grey inclusions, unifacially retouched and expediently made. The left margin exhibits several notches giving a denticulated edge, whilst extensive cortex cover of the right margin and distal end allows for comfortable handling. Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on p143, Fig 5.129, F150 which dates to the Neolithic.

PUBLIC-705275: FLAKE
An edge trimmed flake, grey and brown in colour, which has been uni-facially retouched and expediently made. The left margin of the dorsal face exhibits discontinuous retouch with a low angle and is of edge extent. The same retouch is evident at the proximal end resulting. Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar example on p143, Fig 63, L200 which dates to the Neolithic.

PUBLIC-702858: FLAKE
An edge trimmed flake, mottled grey in colour, which has been bi-facially retouched and expediently made. The left margin and distal end of the dorsal face exhibit discontinuous retouch with a low angle and is of edge extent. The same retouch is evident on the ventral face resulting in improved serration function. Extensive cortex cover of the right margin of the dorsal face allows for comfortable handling. Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar example on p131, Fig 57, L110 which dates to the Neolithic.

PUBLIC-701587: MICROLITH
Flint broken microlith, triangular in plan ans section, and lozenge in profile. Broken at distal end. Bulb on ventral face. Serrated left and right edges. The flint is dark brown colour with lighter flecks. Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on page 112, Fig. 5.96, No. 26, which is dated to the Mesolithic.

PUBLIC-6FE077: BLADE
Flint pebble blade fragment, trapezoidal in plan, rectangular in profile and triangular in section. Bulb on ventral face. Broken at distal end. A layer of cream cortex on the dorsal face, with serrated left and right edges. The flint is light to dark grey colour. Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on page 112, Fig. 5.96, No. 19, which is dated to the Mesolithic.

PUBLIC-6FB195: FLAKE
Flint edged-flake, sub-oval in plan, plano-convex in profile and triangular in section. Conchoidal ripples on ventral face. Serrated retouch along the left edge on dorsal face. The flint is honey yellow colour with lighter inclusions. Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar example on page 129, Fig. 56, No. L102, which is dated to the Neolithic.

PUBLIC-6F9F22: ARROWHEAD
A leaf arrowhead of translucent dark grey brown flint with a tiny patch of nodular cortex near to one margin. One side is totally invasively retouched, but the other is only worked from the margins, leaving much of the ventral surface of the preform flake. The plan is assymetric and unexpected given the competence of the pressure flaking. It appears that the leaf has been retouched after damage.Opposite the curved edge there is a long straight edge which has truncated the ventral scars. Also, what was the pointed tip has been semi-abruptly trimmed and a notch put into one of the convergent margins. This suggests that after breaking the tip, the arrow was turned round and the still quite sharp base used as the new tip. Bond(2004) on page 123, fig 5.107 illustrates a Green 2cb which may have been the original plan. A similar example is in Cornwall Archaeological Journal 36(1997), p.27, fig 10, L22.

CORN-6E0007: POT
Pottery body sherd with an abraded exterior surface. The fabric has inclusions of pale felspars and mica, and is mid-brown on the exterior and on the interior of the sherd, with a dark core. This fabric is seen in comparable local Grooved Ware vessels, dating from c.2900-2400 BC (Henrietta Quinnell, forthcoming).

HAMP-6DF505: FINGER RING
A corroded fragment from a cast copper-alloy finger-ring of Roman date. The fragment consists of part of the bezel, shoulders and hoop, with the breaks at the bezel and hoop the result of old damage. is broadly hexagonal in plan. The upper surface of the ring has a large oval recess (W.: c. 10.55mm) which would have taken a setting. The shoulders are slightly bevelled and narrow as they travel down. The hoop itself continues to narrow and is c. 5.5mm wide where it has broken. Assuming this finger-ring is Roman in date it is best classified as a Guiraud Type 2d (Henig Type II/III). The piece has a dark internal surface colour; the outer surface looks to have been cleaned recently.

HAMP-6DB182: STRAP END
A corroded and damaged early-medieval cast copper-alloy strap-end, classified as Thomas' (2003, 2) Class A, Type 2. This would date the artefact to around the ninth century. The strap-end has a flat, rectangular cross-section and sub-oval in form. It is curved in profile as a result of old damage. The split attachment end is rounded through abrasions. Its upper fold has been all but lost and the lower fold is so abraded that the usual pair of rivet holes cannot be discerned. The artefact tapers gradually towards the terminal which is more pointed, but still rounded at the tip. The zoomorphic head terminal is moulded in very low relief with possible ears formed of incisions with punched dots. Within a low recess the main plate is decorated on its upper surface within a zone at the attachment end half. Only a stamped flower, a sexfoil with central punch, can be fully seen; there is a second stamped motif beyond but much of it has been lost due to the loss of the fold mentioned above. The object has corroded to a dull dark-grey colour.

Pottery body sherd with possible rustication in the form of poorly formed incised chevrons running along the width of the exterior of the sherd. The sherd is made of gabbroic clay that weathers over the gabbro outcrop on the Lizard in Cornwall. The fabric has large inclusions of pale felspars and smaller inclusions of dark augite and mica, and is orangey-brown on the exterior and on the interior of the sherd, where it is coarse and uneven, with a dark core. This gabbroic fabric is seen in comparable local Grooved Ware vessels, dating from c.2900-2400 BC (Henrietta Quinnell, forthcoming). Anna Brindley in Cleal & MacSween (1999) illustrates similarly haphazard chevrons on Grooved Ware vessels from Spong Hill in Norfolk, on page 140, Fig.14.2, Nos.16-17.
