A copper alloy lower blade fragment from a palstave dating to the Middle Bronze Age, circa 1500-1300 BC. The shape of the fragment is sub-triangular in plan and triangular in profile; the cross section at the break is sub-rectangular in form.

An incomplete cast copper-alloy single looped buckle of probable late Early Medieval to Medieval date, c. 900-1100.
