Paul and Charmian Woodfield (see notes, below) write: 'Base metal finger-ring open on one side, and having enlarged snake head terminals. The interior has traces of silvering, suggesting that it was originally silvered all over. This is a well known Roman mass produced style of jewellery, which can occur in a variety of metals, including in gold (Newport Pagnell, Buckinghamshire - bracelet), silver, and bronze. The nearest similar findspot for a snake-headed artefact is at Castlethorpe (Buckinghamshire - pair of silver bracelets of c. 1st century; 1/2 mile distant) where other jeweller…

Object type: STRAP END
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Northamptonshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete cast copper-alloy Roman artefact, probably a strap-end, possibly a pendant of the military type. The perforations, a pair of kidney-shaped holes in the upper part of the object and a further broken perforation above, suggest that this is an amphora-shaped strap-end, as such dating to the fourth or fifth century AD (Geake 2001, 31). By definition, the artefact takes the broad shape of an amphora, tapering to a two-part terminal knop 5mm in width. The body to the right of the right-hand kidney-shaped perforation (when looking at the front view of the object) has been bro…

Object type: COIN
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Northamptonshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A contemporary copy of a 4th century Roman nummus. That the coin is a contemporary copy is indicated by its tiny diameter (9.4 mm) and the slightly crude depiction of the fields. It is however a fairly good copy of a Fel Temp Reparatio issue from the early second half of the 4th century.

A worn and incomplete cast copper-alloy Roman bow brooch, probably a Hod Hill/Aucissa variant, dating from around the mid 1st century AD. The extant brooch consists of the bow from below the head down to the foot; the head, spring and pin are missing, so far as can be discerned from the image provide (see notes, below). Similarly, it is hard to state how far the catchplate has survived, if it has at all. As stated, it appears that the brooch was broken below the head. At this point it is 6mm wide and continues at this width for 11mm. It appears from the image that it is decorated wi…
