Ten fragments of iron tap-slag of varying size and shape. These fragments have a total weight of 812.83g.

Photographs of the fragments were shown to Mr Peter Boardman who confirmed the tap-slag identification and commented that some of the fragments show nice run patterns on the surface. He went on to comment "it looks like it is" possibly "post blast furnace invention/development so could date anywhere between the 1300's onwards" to very modern "but am unable to confir…
