Copper alloy wheel. Cast wheel with four thin spokes expanding at their inner ends to form a rhomboid hub. On one side there are 29 tiny circular stamps of diameter 1.2mm in a closely spaced series around the rim, with a similar off-centre stamp on the hub; on the other side thirty identical stamps appear on the rim with another placed on the hub, again off-centre. In both cases, the arrangement of stamps becomes denser towards one end of the series, and on both sides the 'central' stamp may be closer to this more crowded group. The finder kindly identifies the object as a possible vo…

Copper alloy wheel. Cast round section ring with the stubs of six lentoid section spokes of width c.3.5mm and thickness c.2.5mm projecting from an internal mould line. The mass of the object suggests it to be solid. The wheel is associated with the cult of Taranis as an attribute of a god of thunder or the sky. An earlier association with the solar disc is also suspected, dating back to the Bronze Age, and finds echoes in Classical mythology. This example is larger than others viewed by this reporter, and had more spokes than the smaller versions. A fine finish to this simple object i…

Copper alloy wheel. Cast wheel with four spokes; one pair forming a continuous line across a central hub, and the other pair forming an S-shaped curve, all within a D-section rim. Both straight and curving spokes bear a ridge or rib upstanding on one side, with the central boss or hub slightly protruding above them. These details are absent on the other side, which is flat except for the more marked projection of a central round-section hub. Though this projects further than that on the display side, it is too short to permit use as a spinning toy or whirligig. The wheel was an attribu…

Pottery Bodysherd of shell-tempered fabric, possibly from a hand-made vessel. The inner surface is black; the outer surface is oxidised to a pale orange-buff colour. The diameter of the vessel, at least where this sherd comes from, would be about 140mm. Despite the coarse fabric, there is no sign of external sooting, and therefore no evidence that this was from a vessel used as a cooking pot. Sandra Firth kindly examined this sherd, suggesting a possible Roman date. Suggested date: Later Iron Age to Early Roman, -300 to 200. Length: 43.19mm, Thickness: 8.7mm, Weight: 18.04gms.
