A complete Post Medieval cast lead alloy circular bifaced token, c. 1550-1800 AD. The token has been cast with a raised design of a equal arm cross with a pellet in each quarter on the obverse and the letters W K on the reverse. The token measures 21.84mm in diameter, 2.67mm thick and weighs 6.3 grams. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally; they are therefore hard to date precisely and could be Medieval or Post Medieval in date (1250-1850 AD). Until recently cross and pellet designs were thought to be contemporary with the similar Medieval coin designs; however …

Object type: AXEHEAD ROUGHOUT
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Greenstone or metadolerite axe roughout, which has been petrologically analysed by Dr. Roger Taylor as part of the Clodgy Moor Project. The roughout is a bladed cobble that is ovate in plan and section, and lozenge-shaped in profile. There are more invasive flake scars at the butt end of the roughout, and on the left margin of the ventral face, and there is a concentric crack that carries on around the dorsal face of the roughout, curving inside the blade end. This suggests that the roughout has been trimmed by splitting as well as chipping, and then smoothing. Similar examples are tu…

A gilded copper alloy rowel from a spur. The rowel is has five points and has raised radiating bands between each pair of points. Iron corrosion in the centre is all that is left of the axle and housing. In the medieval period the use of gilding on spurs was used to indicate a man's status as a knight. Compare LIN-598791. This object was found near Towton Battlefield, so it may date from 1461.

An incomplete cast copper-alloy spoon handle of Roman date. It is missing the bowl and perhaps part of the handle tip due to old breaks. The handle is square in section at the bowl end, changing to a circular section approximately one third of the way down its length, before tapering to a rounded tip that is perhaps incomplete due to old breaks. There is a bend in the handle to an angle of 45 degrees, probably resultant from post-depositional damage. At the bowl end the handle is flattened and curves downwards towards the now missing bowl, a rectangular notch visible at the bowl end …

Metamafic greenstone axe roughout which has been petrologically analysed by Dr. Roger Taylor as part of the Clodgy Moor Project. Sub-ovate in section and plan with angled sides that taper towards the butt end, and lozenge-shaped in profile. The roughout has been shaped and ground from a weathered cobble to create a blade end and sides to the axe. The roughout is off-centre and its section not quite elliptical, or symmetrical either side of the mid-line. This shows that it was made from a cobble where one side maintains the original smooth surface that is due to the underlying crystall…

A fragment of a two-piece copper-alloy dagger scabbard chape. The front-piece is cast and terminates in a scallop form. Only the base of this survives. The grooves and ridges which create the effect of the shell radiate out from a recessed openwork aperture of uncertain shape. The sheet backplate is missing. In its form the chape has similarities with examples illustrated in Ward Perkins (1993, 285; fig. III), Cuddeford (1994, 40; fig. 76) and Bailey (1995, 70). Such parallels suggest a late fifteenth- or sixteenth-century date for this artefact. On many of these examples the …
