A copper-alloy chisel of probable late Bronze Age date. The tang is of rectangular section, is slender in appearance, and tapers gradually in width to its widest point at the shoulders.

It is likely that that the handle section would originally have sat within a wood or bone casing, no trace of which survives. The object is bronze green and has a good patina and there is a small hole on one side of the blade, which is probably the result of air becoming trapped during the casting process. The tool m…
