A group of three objects from the same field, though not necessarily deposited together, all of probably Early Medieval date. All three objects are fragments of waste silver, probably evidence of silver working. They are undecorated and have no dating evidence themselves, but are from a known Early Medieval productive site. There is one larger piece of thick plate (28.9mm long, 15.46mm wide and 4.09mm thick, 4.83g) with all but one of the edges broken or cut. The remaining edge is rounded. One face is irregular. The other is smooth but with wrinkles and small blisters. There is …

A copper alloy Early Medieval Strap end with niello inlay. The underside is plain but the top is decorated longitudinally with multiple curved lines above the zoomorphic terminal, which separates the terminal from the central panel; a similar design is repeated between the split attachment end and the central panel. The central panel appears to contain inlaid niello decoration in the form of four spirals. Probably Thomas Type A, c. 9th to 10th century AD.

A cast copper alloy Early-medieval knife terminal or fitting. See record: NMS-6B81F1: Copper-alloy mount, probably from the handle of a knife or sword. It is flat-ended and cylindrical, with four deep cut-outs with intervening points at the other end. Two points are distorted (bent out of shape). The sides, but not the unperforated flat end, are decorated with engraved lines forming rather crude arches which do not quite mirror the arched cut-outs. A transverse hole is filled with the remains of an iron pin; this cannot be seen on the photograph, but is just visible on the drawing…

An incomplete cast copper alloy Early Medieval strap end probably dating from about the 11th Century. The strap end is an elongated sub triangle in shape with a defined zoomorphic terminal. This terminal is sub rectangular in profile and depicts the snout and eyes of a creature and a pair of ears laid back on to the creature's body; faint decoration along the body shows an incised border near the edge and possibly more on the body but this is difficult to see due to wear. The strap end has a split-plate on the reverse but this broken and is now incomplete; it would have been secured t…

A fragment of copper alloy, probably a mount with a rivet still in place. The object is rectangular in plan and D shaped in section, with a separate thin wire copper alloy rivet surviving, with the ends thickened. The other circular rivet hole is empty. It is believed to be Early Medieval based on comparison to other similar finds, and because this site produces many early Medieval finds. Its function is unknown but it could have been part of binding, maybe from a shield or vessel. Compare SWYOR-7CAAE7, SWYOR-7CD8D7 and SWYOR-DBEDF7.

A copper-alloy hooked tag of Early Medieval (probably late 8th to 9th century) date. The bottom point of the inverted drop-shaped plate tapers and extends into a backward-facing hook. The plate has two circular holes at the upper edge which is bi lobed like the top of a heart shape. One hole is elongated, perhaps a double hole suggesting a repair. The plate is decorated with notches round the edge giving a serrated effect. There is also some transverse moulding across the top of the hook. Compare LEIC-9FC848 and FAKL-C9E283.

An incomplete sky blue opaque glass bead of cylinder design. Only one end of the bead survives. There is a circular hole through the centre of the bead. It was made by trailing glass in a spiral - a line can be seen twisting along the length of the bead. Glass beads are very hard to date, but this one is likely to be Early Medieval because it is from a site which produces a lot of Early Medieval material. Compare SWYOR-41CFB4, BERK-6C6D05 and BERK-6F9BF3.

A copper alloy circular object, perhaps a mount, of probable Early Medieval date. It is a circular disc of copper alloy sheet. There are four circular holes through the plate, one in each angle of an incised cross with flared arms. There are traces of gilt in the incised lines. There is no evidence of attachment on the reverse, but one edge is broken, so there may have been an attachment there. The same design can be seen on early Medieval brooches such as NMS-698432 and NMS-993175, and on a mount HAMP-10B565 (though this is given a later date).
