An unidentified cast copper-alloy object possibly related to either a strap end or pendant dating from the Roman to Post Medieval period. The object is conical, with a conical raised terminal at one end and a circular break at the wider end. There is a small circular indentation or break on the upper surface. This object bears similarities with pseud-phallic apron pendants and strap ends dating to the Roman period, however this particular example is quite large and heavy. It measures 43.37 mm long, 11.62 mm diameter at broken end, 6.89 mm diameter at terminal end; it weighs 15.76 grams.

An incomplete Medieval to Post Medieval copper-alloy thimble, dating to the 15th - 16th century. The thimble is tall with a slightly rounded top. The indentations in the thimble are sub-rectangular. The indentations have been arranged in a spiral on the top, and have been arranged in rows on the sides.

A Post Medieval cast lead alloy bifaced token, dating from c. AD 1550-1800. One face is decorated with a 'W' and the other with a 'B', both with circumferential raised edges. The token has an even buff-white colour. Tokens had a variety of uses and were widely distributed and easy to fashion over a large span of time; they are therefore difficult to date specifically, but those with initials or numbers are thought to date to the Post Medieval period.
