County: West Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete but crudely made cast copper alloy crotal bell. The bell is divided into two hemispheres by a prominent ridge which runs around the centre of the bell. The upper hemisphere is undecorated with two large sound holes (one is mis-cast and larger than the other). A crude, irregular shaped square loop extends up from the top of the upper hemisphere. The loop is pierced by a circular hole. The lower hemisphere houses the large sound slot. The remains of the iron pea have corroded out of the slot, forming a lump of iron rust inside the slot. The bell is undecorated and the metal …

Object type: SPOON
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: West Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
The bowl and part of a stem from possibly a pewter spoon. The spoon stem and handle were probably cast. The stem is flat and rectangular in section and the edges are chamfered. There is a slight swelling in the stem just before the bowl. The stem is broken so it is not possible to say how long it once would have been, the break is well worn. The bowl is roughly oval in shape and is shallow. The reverse of the stem has a ridge running down its spine. The reverse of the bowl is undecorated. This spoon is probably late 17th – 19th century in date.

Record ID: HESH-8D3853
Object type: BROOCH
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Shropshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Fragment or part of a possible lead form for the manufacture of a Roman bow brooch. This form probably dates from the early Roman period contemporary with the style of brooch (50-200 AD). The object is broadly sub triangular in plan and fairly similar to the upper part (bow and head) of a two piece Colchester derivative bow brooch. The artefact has been badly abraded in the soil and is therefore incomplete and the edges are rounded. The wings are semi-cylindrical however the wing caps are not present. The bow of the brooch form is humplike and the bow terminates in a abraded point. Th…

Fragment from a late medieval or post medieval buckle (1400-1650). The fragment is formed from cast copper alloy and madein several pieces that are kept together by a corroded iron axis central axis bar. The parts consist of the pin and an integral hinge and tapering plate. The pin is decorated with a single cast bar and would originally have moved separately to that of the plate. The plate is incomplete and would have originally terminated in either a small stud or loop to aid attachment. The two parts are held together by a central iron axis bar which passes through the centre of bo…

Object type: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A cast copper alloy fragment from a much larger object. The object is largely unidentifiable. The fragment is formed from a plate of copper alloy which now survives as a sub-rectangular shape with an irregular projecting extending upwards. The main part of the plate has two raised ribs, running parallel to each other. In between these ribs there are three surviving bosses. Each boss has been formed from a series of concentric circles, with a round knop on each pinnacle. The irregular projection also has a boss on it. The metal has been badly water washed and has therefore lost the …
