AD43-1700).
The artefact has a flat, round, slightly concave base, with concave, tapering sides and concave apex with two projecting points which are probably broken terminals for a suspension loop. Although the object stands by itself, the sides are irregular and it leans. it has a creamish brown patina which has flaked off in places and some surface abrasion.
This object is probably a weight, with a suspension loop for a hanging on a line, possibly for fishing or other activities. Weights are notoriously difficult to date outside of archaeological contexts.

Weights like this found outside of archaeological contexts are difficult to date, and might reasonably have been used from the Roman-modern period. Similar parallels found at Anglo-Scandinavian sites like Torksey (Lincs) and recently 'a Riverine Site Near York' (Williams 2020) might indicate that this is a Viking-age artefact. According to the weight typology in 'A Riverine Site Near York', this weight would be G.2.a (conical, flat bottomed, undecorated) (Williams 2020, page 21). Similar parallels on the PAS databse include: SWYOR-7C78D9; SWYOR-79BE98.

On the other face are traces of another design in relief, probably a symbolic petalled flower, though only two pointed oval petals are visible. These motifs put the token into Powell type 5 (anchors) and 1 (symbolic flowers). In addition, the token has two large (3mm diameter) holes through the flan. These interrupt the design, and may be a later addition, perhaps to use the token as a button. One hole is torn to the edge of the flan.

A complete copper alloy 'vesica' seal matrix of the Medieval period (AD1200-1250).
The object pointed oval or vesica shaped with intact suspension loop (or handle) and tapering raised midrib on the reverse.
The central design is within a beaded border, and has at its apex a trefoil with two curls below and a stem leading to the central motif comprising two heads conjoined. The head facing left (right on the impression) appears to be a veiled female; the head facing right appears male, possibly with moustache and hood. Below, the central stem then leads to another trefoil motif below which is a pellet either side.
The inscription around the edge of the seal matrix begins with a star above a crescent, and reads: SIGILLVm . ADE DE TInDAL (Seal [of] Adam of Tindal/Tynedale).
Seals with personal names, as this one has, are generally dated to the 13th century (c.AD1200-1300). The central 'two heads' design of the seal is recognised as one the more common motifs of the period (Geake, 2020). In this case, the personal name on the seal can almost certainly be associated with two specific individuals: a father and son both named 'Adam de Tindale, recorded as being Barons of Langely in the later 12th to mid 13th century.
The Barony of Langley during that period is described as being "13,000 acres in extent, contained within an approximate area bounded by the River Allen and the Black Dyke earthwork to the west; the southern edge of Muckle Moss to the north; Nether Warden and the South Tyne at Kingshaw Plain to the east; and Bush Fell to Harsondale Burn to the south", centred on Langley Castle, just outside modern Haydon Bridge, Northumberland (See attached map; Telford, 2007).
The Tindale or Tynedale family have been traced with some certainty from the later 11th century onwards, and were undoubtedly a powerful family in the turbulent years of the Scottish Wars that dominate the history of Northumberland during that period (ibid). The ‘Historic Peerage of England’ (Courthope and Nicolas,1857, 477) records both Adam de Tindale’s as being ‘Barons by Tenure’: Adam senior holding the Barony of Langley under Henry II (reigned AD1154-89), succeeded by his son who held the Barony under Richard I (reigned AD1189-1199). The younger Adam was known to be living AD1194, and died prior to AD1251, possibly in 1233, leaving two daughters as co-heirs (Sanders 1960, 127). The elder, Philippa, married Adam Nicholas de Bolteby and thus conveyed to her husband the Barony (Hodgson 1840, 364).
Numerous feudal records and Pipe Rolls make reference to Adam de Tindale: During Edward I Inspeximus of 1298 (essentially a survey of the lands belonging to Hexham following the Scottish invasion of the previous year) ‘Adam De Tyndal' is recorded as having (previously) donated to the Church of Hexham the "Entire manor of Warden with church, and chapels of Stayncroft, Hayden, and Langley"; records relating to Warden in particular make reference to the Tindale grant (Hinds 1896, 139; Hodgson 1820, 105, 120 and 175). Attesting to the preeminence of the Barony, also recorded are several homages and rents owed to an 'Adam de Tindale' by their vassals, and a further reference to a Richard of Kirkhaugh who was “in the train of Adam de Tindale at the siege of Berwick-upon-Tweed in 1300” (Hinds 1896, 141; Hodgson 1820, 66). This latter reference is, however, somewhat incongruous; no siege of Berwick is recorded for that date (as far as could be ascertained) and in any case would have occurred some 50 years after the recorded death of the Adam de Tindale(s) referenced above.
It is not clear how the findspot of the seal may relate to the Barony of Langley, and if any lands were owned or held in the area of South Tyneside by the Tindale family. Further research may yet identify such a link; however, the seal may have been a casual loss in that area.

An incomplete copper alloy British plate brooch of the Roman period (c.AD150-350).
The object is a flat plate or disc brooch: at the centre is a reserved spot surrounded by a concave sided hexagon, with small circles at the cusps. Red enamel fills the hexagon; blue enamel fills the void between the outer walls of the hexagon (and cusps) and the outer trim of the brooch. Mackreth (2011, vol.1, 156) notes that this from of plate brooch is distinguished by 'the applied white metal trim'; however, no trace of white metal, or discolouration associated with the solder, can be discerned. The reverse of the brooch bears the fragmentary remains of a sprung pin, and pin loop, around the single pierced vertical attachment lug. Below is a partial catchplate, comprising a single raised vertical lug.
The brooch is in a fair condition with some wear on all surfaces and a slight amount of damage around the edge,most of the enamel is still present on the face,the patina of the visible metal is of a mottled dark green colouring.
Thickness: 2.25 mm
Weight: 4.7 g
Diameter: 18.73 mm
Mackreth (2001 vol.1 156) categorises this from of brooch as a British (made) Plate type 2.b (ibid, vol.2, Plate 105: 11599). The distribution of form 2.b is interesting, as they tend to be found in the south of England, particularly around the Norfolk fens, south of the Bristol channel, and a small cluster in Kent (ibid, vol.1,158) . However, the exception to this are the brooches of this particular type recovered from recovered from Hadrian's Wall and it's hinterland, of which South Tyneside forms part.

An incomplete, lead, possible Post-Medieval military or livery badge, dating pre- AD 1855.
The badge is in the form of a crown surmounted by a lion, both elements showing damage. The crown is a cushioned crown with a decorated headband and edged with a pelleted border. The lion stands on a horizontal bar at the top of the crown. It has been crushed and the features are indistinct with what is probably the mane folded towards the rear. There are two holes beneath the lion's body, possible for attachment purposes.
The depiction of badge is similar in design to some British Army badges, in particular the upper section of the Loyal North Lancashire Regiment's badge. However, this regiment was only formed in the late 19th century, and as lead badges tend to predate 1855, when lead was sometimes used as a cheaper material for military insignia, it is unlikely to be from the Lancashire Regiment. The '15th The King's Hussars' (raised 1759) also used insignia featuring a crown surmounted by a lion, and thus the badge is more likely to be related to this cavalry regiment.

A complete lead token of post medieval date (AD 1550-1850). The object is sub-circular in plan and flat in section. On the obverse of the object is a raised motif in the shape of an anchor a central raised pellet in the centre of the anchor. The obverse has initials: H/H. The reverse of the object has a raised geometric pattern consisting of a single vertical line with two outward facing arcs, one to each side. The two arcs and vertical line are connected by a horizontal line which connects all three. The reverse also has raised pellets at 12, 3, 6 and 9 O'clock. Powell Type 5.
Lead tokens had a wide variety of potential uses such as tallies, gaming pieces, tickets, weights, etc. and are believed to have been locally produced; they are therefore difficult to date precisely.
The metal is cream in colour with a predominantly smooth patina.
