Object type: METAL WORKING DEBRIS
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published
Battered strip of thin lightweight white metal, perhaps silver. The original dimensions of the strip must have been c. 26mm x 18mm, but it has been folded roughly in half down the long axis. The fold is not particularly sharp, and it is possible that it was folded over something organic such as cloth or thin leather which has not survived. On each face are two rows of sub-triangular or rectangular punchmarks set transversely and apparently not in neat pairs. The stamp used may have been a square stamp held at an angle. This object is hand-made, but cannot be identified or closely dated.

Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Post-medieval copper alloy buckle frame, double-looped, both loops ovoid, one badly distorted. Two pairs of iron stained projections in the centre must have restricted the movement of the pin along the bar. These are an unusual feature, cf. an example from Sussex (SUSS-CD61D3). The sides, edges and bar of flat cross-section and as a result the front and back faces are indistinguishable. The whole object is very lightweight, thickness 1.5mm, weight 3.6g. 23 x 31mm. 17th century.

Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A cast copper alloy double looped buckle dating from the medieval period. The buckle has an integrally cast central strap bar but the pin is now missing. It is likely that the pin was made of iron as suggested by a large mass of iron corrosion on the central bar. This is a common type of buckle, often referred to as a 'spectacle' buckle, and dates from the period c. AD 1350-1700.

Object type: BEAD
Broad period: MODERN
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published
Description: Incomplete object, perhaps a bead, made of beaded silver wire. The wire is coiled into 4½ surviving turns which become gradually smaller, forming a truncated cone. The beading is very neat and perfect, with narrow beads forming transverse ridges on the inner surfaces rather than rounded beads. On the exterior, however, the beads are very worn so that the surface is almost smooth. The beading on the narrower end is in unworn condition, suggesting that at least one turn of the coil has been lost here. The beading on the wider end is unworn for about half its circumferen…

A cast copper alloy open work stirrup strap mount, dating to the late early-medieval / Anglo-Scandinavian period c. AD 1000-1100. The stirrup mount has a lozenge-shaped frame and has four openwork lozenge-shaped apertures internally; the uppermost section and apex is now broken but would have terminated in a rounded loop for suspension and attachment. There is a heel at the base of the mount and a rivet in the centre of the openwork frame, probably to act as extra security. Williams Class A Type 12.

A fragment from a cast copper-alloy Anglo-Saxon Great Square-headed Brooch, dating from the early to mid-6th century AD. The fragment is one of the arms of the brooch, is gilded and is decorated with chip-carving in Salin's Style I. There are disjointed animal parts such as legs and bodies which are distinguishable and possibly a animal or predatory bird's head. The reverse is plain. Although the break is worn it does not appear to be ancient, suggesting that it may have happened during ploughing.
