A heavily worn and incomplete Bronze Age palstave axe head. Extensive surface loss has occurred along the edges and surfaces of the find, giving the axe and thin irregular form. The butt end is sub-square, and is slightly more truncated to one side. From the butt, the sides flare slightly. The side flanges are missing; however, the stop ridge is still prominently visible, especially on one side. From the stop ridge, the blade tapers slightly (due to surface loss) before flaring marginally to the cutting edge which is heavily truncated and rounded. A partial rib is visible on one face…

An incomplete copper alloy heraldic horse harness pendant, dating to the medieval period (c. AD 1189-1399).  The pendant is in the shape of a square topped shield (Heater shield), with straight top and convex sides meeting at a point at the bottom that is broken to the left of the point. At the centre of the top edge projects an integral incomplete transverse loop. The face is decorated with enamelled heraldic design that consists of three lions passant on a background of gules (red). The enamel of the lions is lost. The reverse is plain and undecorated. …

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A lead weight. The weight is circular in form and engraved with ‘IIII’ on one face. The reverse has a single linear line running across the face but is otherwise plain. It has been suggested that leads weights incised with a form of number may represent the weight of the weight in ounces. If this example was meant to be four ounces, it is underweight at 3.6 ounces. Illegal lead weights are notoriously difficult to date as they bear no official mark.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper-alloy rotary key. The key consists of a triangular bow, an oval in section solid stem, and a sub-rectangular bit with multiple wards and clefts projecting.  An incised X is visible on the stem as it tapers outwards at the bow. No direct comparable examples could be found. The key is too big to be identified as a casket key, and could therefore be suggested to have been a door key. While the key doesn’t fit stylistically with any compared examples, it can be suggested to be of late medieval to post medieval date.

A copper-alloy mount. The brooch is formed of a single plate of copper alloy in the shape of a Tudor rose. Raised floral decoration is present on the front face. On the reverse, aside from seeing the underside of the decoration, the mount is plain with no visible attachment points. Due to the thinness of the metal the mount has become slightly warped and has a number of voids on its surface, probably occurring post deposition. Based on comparable examples the find is likely Post Medieval (1650-1750) in date.

There are traces of decoration on one face. Similar objects have been recorded on the PAS database; see IOW-1D6452 and DENO-ED895E these examples are however copper alloy rather than lead.

A dome-shaped lead weight of unknown date. The top of the weight is dome-shaped with a small circular perforation at the top running through the centre and out through the base. A wire would have run through the centre of the weight in order for it to be suspended. The base is misshaped and sunken with a small central circular perforation. The object is covered in a light grey patina. The level of patination may suggest a later post-medieval date. Similar examples have been recorded on the PAS database see; SUR-B3704E

Object type: SPINDLE WHORL
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Gwynedd
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A lead spindle whorl of possible Medieval to Post-Medieval date. The object is bi-conical in plan with 9mm centeral perforation and is undecorated. Spindle whorls can be difficult to date, especially for undecorated versions. The size of the central perforation can be an indicator of date with larger perforations being indicative of an Early-Medieval to Post-Medieval date (Rogers 2007, 23-24). Lead spindle whorls also became more popular from the 13th century onwards, and it is therefore probable that this find dates from the medieval period, though it could be earlier. …
