Copper alloy probable vessel fragment. Cast plano-convex section fragment from a cauldron leg with a pronounced moulded rib on its outer side, flat behind. Raggedly broken at both ends of its short remaining extent. This might suggest multiple casting flaws, the vigorous dismantling of an object for recycling, or recurrent plough-strike damage - pot legs are robust objects and this pattern of breakage is unusual. So too, for a cauldron leg, is the lack of sooting - though black spots were observed on the magnified views achieved during image processing, so this could have been part of …

Lead window came fragment. A short length of cast H-section window came with a trapped fragment of dark degraded glass at one end on one side. Patinated. This came would have permitted the setting of two small adjacent panes. The glass is reverting to its constituent ingredients, which is a feature of a medieval ‘forest’ glass made using potash, rather than the more robust soda glasses of earlier and later times. The width of the slot suggests a thickness of c.2.5mm for the panes. The reporting of window came of medieval date among field finds is remarkably rare. Suggested …

Copper alloy vessel fragment. Cast vessel leg with a single central longitudinal rib on its outer side and with a flat to slightly concave back. Tapered slightly towards a flat base; broken raggedly across the top. There is only a slight trace of sooting on the ribbed side, which might suggest this object to have been detached from an item of formal tableware such as a ewer rather than from a cauldron.

Lead possible spindle whorl. Cast globular or bun-shaped whorl with opposed flat sides and with a slightly off-centre square moulded aperture of c.8mm square; patinated, with a cut by the hole on one side which might represent a tying notch. The thick patina points to an object of some age. If indeed a whorl – the square hole would be an aberrant feature – the spindle hole size would fall between the ranges accepted for earlier and later parts of the early medieval period. Whorls in other materials acquired lathe-turned globular forms from about the 13th century, which migh…

Copper alloy possible anti-aircraft shell fragment. A shard from the slightly everted rim of a cylindrical object vessel of estimated diameter 80mm with iron staining at the top; shattered at either side and along its lower edge. The pattern of catastrophic damage might point to a shard from an exploded anti-aircraft shell, which would be consistent with its suspected diameter. The iron staining may alternatively indicate this object had a place in an assembly of iron or steel parts intimately associated with or enclosed by a thick [5.5mm] copper alloy casing – a definition which…
