‘Plough pebble’ made from a natural quartz on has been worn a worn, polished surface covered in fine striations. This surface is curved in one direction with one edge having a sharper radius, the striations run at 90o to the curve and the surface is flat in this direction. Dimensions: 22.8 x 21.3 x 21.2mm high, Mass 13.98g.
Plough pebbles are an interesting phenomenon; finds from Denmark show them to have been used to armour the soles of a wooden ploughs to prevent premature wear. Holes were drilled into the wood into which hard stone pebbles were hammered, as the plough passed through the earth the pebbles wore out giving the highly distinctive pattern of wear as seen on this find. The evidence for plough pebbles has been reviewed by Niall Brady (2009: 2016). In Ireland plough pebbles are seen as dating from the a thirteenth century and being part of the agricultural expansion promoted by the Cistercians. The 67 pebbles from Bective Abbey support this dating (Brady, 2008, 105). Evidence elsewhere points to wider date range; with the 329 pebble from Whithorn, Dumfries, coming from Early Medieval contexts as do pebbles from Porrmahomack on the Tarbat peninsula, Rosshire. Continental finds suggest that plough pebbles remained in use into the Post Medieval period. Brady commented on the lack of plough pebbles from England: this is certainly the case in the western counties flanking the Irish Sea but not in the east of England; they are not uncommon in Lincolnshire and East Yorkshire. None of the English finds comes from a dated context although the garden in which this pebble was found is also producing Late Anglo-Saxon pottery: FAKL-EDD9AA, FAKL-7473AD, FAKL-982831.

Copper alloy disc, probably the head from a Middle Anglo-Saxon pin. The decoration is partially obscured by corrosion with one edge torn. It was reported that the disc was gilded but it has not been possible to verify this. The disc bear a cross with expanding arms the edges of which are marked by incised lines. Between the arms are what appear to be Trewhiddle-style animals obscured by corrosion. In the In the centre is small perforation which would have secured a decorative stud. This disc represents either a ninth century disc brooch or a pinhead. Parallels exist for brooches with Trewhiddle style decoration albeit finer than this piece (Leahy and Lewis, 2020, 89) but the damage to the edge might point to the tearing away of a pin. It was, unfortunately, not possible to examine the back of the disc for signs of brooch fittings. Diameter 40.5mm. The recorder has not seen this object.

This object was shown to PAS staff in the early stages of the Scheme but has not, until now been recorded. As it is closely related to a shield mount from the Sawcliffe, Roxby cum Risby Anglo-Saxon cemetery which is currently being researched an opportunity was taken to place it on record. The photographs were provided by the finder.

Cast copper alloy mount from the apex of an Anglo-Saxon shield, subsequently reused as a brooch. The disc is decorated with chip-carved, Style I animal art. This is arranged around a central setting and three outer settings linked by plain, bow-sided, propeller-like bars to form three panels each of which contains a Style I animal. These have been studied by Dr Tania Dickinson ('Symbols of Protection: the Significance of Animal-ornamented Shields in Early Anglo-Saxon England' Medieval Archaeology, 2005, vol. 49, pp. 109-163, particularly page 120-123, Fig. 6b). In this Dr Dickinson discusses the 'chasing animal' motif used on the three panels and places them into their context. She placed this disc into her Type b 'large gilded discs with profile animals in Salin's Style I' although, so far as is known this mount was not gilded. The four settings are now empty but are likely to have contained garnets or coloured glass.
Originally, this disc would have fitted onto the expanded finial on top of a shield boss but marks on it back show something of its subsequent history. These consist of what appear to be three solder marks, a narrow pair on one side and a larger mark on the other. These must represesnt the attachment of fittings for a pin spring and a catach plate showing the disc had a secondary use as a brooch. Also on the back are three low bosses which may reflect its original use. The disc is 48mm in diameter andc c. 5 mm thick. The mass was not recorded.

Early Medieval, gilt, cast copper alloy mount decorated with two Anglo-Saxon Style I animals and glass inlay. The mount is rectangular with a central inset containing a piece of what appears to be degraded red glass. Beneath the glass is a hole which may have been an original feature. Around the setting are two animals, their oval eyes at 1 o'clock and 7 o'clock. In front of their faces are U shaped lines which may represent jaws/beaks. The animals' bodies consist of two three-strand bars with a two strand bar perhaps representing necks.Each animal has two hind legs and feet, apparently with five or four toes. The animals are set within a plain frame, a similar frame surrounding the glass setting. Two dark areas on the back of the mount might represent the traces of solder.

Hollow, cast copper alloy mount dated to c. 1000-1100 and decorated in the Anglo-Scandinavian 'Urnes style'. The mount is in the form of an animal's head with a pointed nose and a broad forehead. The tip of the nose was decorated but corrosion now makes it difficult to see the details but it appears that the top of the nose was marked by a baluster moulding on either side of which was scroll motif. Between the nose and the main part of the head are two circular openings between which, and either side of which, are plain areas. Above this area are two, hemispherical eyes set within raised rings and well-defined eye-brows. A central bar runs down the forehead, this is marked by a transverse groove and flanked by to scrolls. On the end of the mount are two small, rounded, ears. The fitting arrangement consists of a small tongue extending from the animal's nose through which is a small rivet. The PAS database contains an number of similar mounds some of which are listed on record LIN-134BEA. Length 36.2mm, Width 20.8mm, Height 10.6mm, Section 3.1mm, Mass 13.65g.

Early Medieval buckle frame, c. 400-700. Cast copper alloy, oval with a flat underside, rounded outer edge and angled inner edge, Marzinzik 2003, 23, Class 1.5. The survival of casting flash on this inner edge suggests that this buckle is unfinished. The buckle bar has a 1.8mm diameter, round section. Width 15.1mm, Length 11.5mm, Thickness 2.4mm, Mass 1.12g.

Early Medieval penannular brooch of Graham-Campbell (1991) Class 1, c. 400-700AD. Cast copper alloy, originally with enamel inlay. Round sectioned hoop, 3.2mm in diameter, now damaged by corrosion but with no trace of the transverse ribbing seen on other examples. The terminals are cuboid/rectangular in general form and measure 14.0mm long x 5.4mm wide x 4.3mm thick. They are set 22.0 mm out of plane with each other, a feature observed on other Class I penannular brooches (Calne, Wiltshire (Youngs 1995, 127-131); Porth Dafarch, Anglesey (Youngs, 1989, No. 15) suggesting that this was an original feature. Each terminal ends with two projections, one on each corner. It is possible that there was a third, smaller projection between them but these areas are obscured by corrosion. The terminals bear tear-shaped recesses the insides of which are deeply scratched suggesting the keying for enamel inlay. Behind these recesses are two projections which are angled towards the distal ends of the terminals. The proximal ends of the terminals are raised, rounded, with sides angled towards the distal ends. Both of these area bear small, tear-drop shaped recesses, scratched for enamel inlay. The pin has an extended length of 81.0mm and is, like the brooch, lightly made tapering to a point from a 3.2mm diameter, round section. It appears that it was 'humped' (curved down) and that its tip curved over the hoop. The pin is linked to the hoop by a cylindrical, bobbin-shaped fitting, 7.0mm diameter, 8.8mm long with a 1.3mm thick section. This cylinder is split, to allow it to be fitted around the ring. Diameter 73.3-56.7mm, Hoop section 3.7mm, Mass 15.33g
These brooches have been the subject of much discussion which has been helpfully reviewed by Youngs in her discussion of the Calne brooch (ibid.). She convincingly argues that these are a British, not Irish, type of fifth-seventh century date. Finds are scattered across central England but with a concentration in northern Lincolnshire (Dark, K.. 2000, Britain and the End of the Roman Empire, Tempus, Stroud, Fig. 36) not far from the Doncaster area where this brooch was found.
