An abraded sherd of glass water worn, probably from a large vessel. The fragment is of a clear transparent glass with a slight yellowish-green tint to the glass. Air bubbles are present in the matrix. It is sub-rounded in plan. The fragment could be Roman but is impossible to date in it's current state as it could just as easily be post-medieval.
The length is 52mm, the width is 48mm and the weight 18.67g.
Roman glass fragments tended to be recycled in antiquity. It was considered to be a more higher status artefact, similar in level to imported Samian ware pottery.

A six-sided die is cuboid in form and has rounded edges and corners. The sides (or faces) are flat and bear numeric values which appear to have been gouged rather than stamped or drilled. The narrow faces are numbered 1, 3 and 5 and the wider faces are numbered 2, 4 and 6. The holes have been punched into each surface in an irregular pattern. The values on opposite faces add up to seven, an arrangement that is termed the 'regular' layout. This layout is found on Roman dice and on some of Medieval and Post Medieval date. It is also the layout used on modern dice.

Damaged cast copper alloy harness fitting dating from the Roman period, that is the 1st-4th century AD. The harness fitting is a terret ring which is composed of an oval ring with circular cross-section and an off-set rectangular loop at the bottom. While the rectangular loop is complete, the larger oval is damaged and part of it is missing. It is likely that it has been worn thin through abrasion by reins or other leather straps until it snapped. Both ends of the break are worn thin and pointy.

Broad period: ROMAN
County: Lancashire
