An almost complete pair of copper-alloy tweezers, probably from the Roman period (AD 43-410), but could date up until the Early Medieval period (c. AD 800). The tweezers are formed from a single rectangluar sectioned band of copper-alloy which has been bent in half, creating a sprung loop one end. It consists of two arms extending from the loop, both of which gradually become wider apart from each other as they curve out. At the terminals of the arms, one has the remains of an inward return of the metal (the pincers), while this is missing from the other arm. There is no visible deocration.

A complete stone bead of uncertain date. The bead is oval with a very fine central circular perforation running through its length. The fineness of the perforation could suggest machine manufacture, meaning that the bead would have a Modern date of c.AD 1900-present, although the lack of contextual evidence means that this cannot be stated with any certainty. The stone is black in colour with white, mottled discolouration on its outer surface. Slight fragmentation at the narrow ends of the bead reveal the black core of the stone.

Circular tin alloy (pewter) mount or ferrule consisting of a rectangular strip soldered into a ring, decorated on the outer face with a line of lozenges or diamond shapes forming a band between parallel raised borders around the circumference of the ring.
