Unidentified copper-alloy artefact of late Iron Age date, possibly a handle. This artefact resembles part of a bridle bit and is very similar to the bridle bit recorded in PAS record BH-9EDAF7 however the dimensions are very slight for that use and the socketed terminal is unknown on such items. This item may also be mistakenly thought to resemble late Iron Age mirror handles although this is "too small and the terminal loop is also not big enough" as well as the terminal socket seeming to exclude such an identification which is the opinion of Dr Jody Joy and Julia Farley. The arte…

A complete but twisted copper-alloy one piece bow brooch of Late Iron Age or Early Roman date, probably a 'Nauheim derivative' La Téne III type.

This brooch consists of short, rectangular cross-sectioned, and pointed pin of c. 12.6mm length. The pin has a width of 2.3mm and thickness of 1.4mm just before the spring. The short length of the pin raises questions as to whether the design of this brooch was always for a twisted form, thus all…
