Iron key. Rotary key for a door, with oval bow, stem of square section - though this may arise from the flaking of corrosion - which protrudes as a more rounded spike from the bit, which bears a single cleft expanded horizontally at the mid-point of bit. The form was long-lasting; the bow is oval rather than kidney-shaped, which may hint at a later date. Suggested date: Late Medieval, 1350-1500.

Iron knife blade fragment. Wrought iron; sub-triangular fragment of V-section, tapering towards a slightly angle-backed tip. The cutting edge of the blade is slightly wavy, probably from recurrent sharpening. The blade may also be slightly twisted at its tip, though this may merely be the effect of differential corrosion. The angle-backed form is typical of medieval whittle tanged knives. The thickness in particular is presumably exaggerated by corrosion products.Suggested date: Medieval, 1200-1400.
