A fragment of a copper-alloy Langton Down type brooch of 1st century AD date (R. Hattatt, 1982, p. 80).

A copper-alloy Colchester type brooch of 1st century AD date. The brooch is incomplete, bent and corroded. The head is narrow and is missing one of its wings; the surviving wing has a flat underside and is possibly incomplete.

Copper alloy nail with a circular cross sectioned shank, slightly squared off at the point, and a seperate sheet head. The head is flat on top and convex underneath, a seam is clearly visible where it joins the shank. Nails are difficult to date and this example could be from the Roman to Post medieval period but the latter is more likely due to the manufacturing technique involved. It is 33.3mm long, the shank is 3.5mm in diameter and the head 10.6mm, it weighs 2.36 grams.
