Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A small lead musket ball dating from the post-medieval period, about AD 1600 - 1900. The casting sprue remains and also part of the casting seam. There is an eruption on one side of the ball, suggesting that a small bubble may have formed during casting. The ball has a light grey patina. It is 13mm in diameter (including casting sprue) and weighs 8.6g, suggesting that it was intended for use in a pistol. For reference, see Harding, B F.,2012, Lead Shot of the English Civil War: a Radical Study.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An extremely corroded copper alloy object, 35.2mm in length, with a rounded body, a flat semi-circular projection and a pierced hole through the centre. There is a break across the body of the object; what remains is extensively corroded and heavily damaged. Possibly the central block from a cast, copper alloy purse bar of late Medieval or early post-medieval date, circa 1450 - 1550. The central vertical perforation would therefore take the suspension loop swivel and the form could compare to Williams (2018) Class C1 (Ward Perkins' Type B1), with a square central block and short ar…

A fragment of the front plate of a post-medieval copper alloy book clasp, probably dating to c. 1500-1650. The fragment is rectangular in plan, with one end (the strap attachment end) which is flared and has four triangular indentations. One of the tips of this flared edge is missing due to an old break. The opposite end of the plate (the hook end) is missing. The break here is worn, but it is straight and square. At the attachment end there are two equally-sized holes, arranged transversely and each sitting within a stamped circle. The two holes are close enough for the stamped ci…
