Object type: HARNESS MOUNT
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete copper-alloy harness pendant suspension mount, medieval and circa 14th century in date. It is oval in plan with a convex fromt face and a concave back face, measuring 23mm in length and 15m in width. Projecting from the centre of the back face there is an integral cylindrical stud, which would have been pushed through a leather harness strap. Projecting from one edge of the mount there are two parallel folded loops, through which a horizontal bar could have been placed for the now missing pendant to be hung from. Traces of gilding can also be seen on this mount. It is simil…

Object type: LAMP HANGER
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete copper-alloy lamp suspender. This lamp suspender has been cast in one and measures 31mm in height and 20.5mm in width. It consists of a central vertical shaft which terminates in a suspension loop. The base of this shaft flares outwards and is in the centre of three arms, which project at right angles from the central shaft. Each arm is incomplete due to old breaks, the missing terminals probably originally had circular perforations through them from which chains would have hung, to hold the lamp below. There is another circular perforation, through a small central knop,…

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper-alloy possible rivet, with a flat roughly circular head and an integral cylindrical shaft which is pushed through another roughly circular disc at its terminal end. It measures 14mm in length and 14mm in width (across the larger flat disc).

Object type: SLEEVE CLASP
Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An unusual incomplete cast copper-alloy clasp half, possibly the catch piece from an early Anglo-Saxon wrist or sleeve clasp. As the clasp-half is cast in one piece it has been classified as form B12 by John Hines (Hines pers comm 2005). Like other B12 examples it consists of a straight bar, cast in one, with loops for sewing to the garment, and a decorative knob in the middle of the rear edge giving a T-shape. Roughly half of this clasp-half survives and it measures 21mm in length and 20.2mm in width at its widest point. The surviving loop projects from one corner and has a circula…

Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: MEDIEVAL

Two large cast copper-alloy cooking vessel rim fragments likely to be medieval or early post medieval and between 1300-1600 in date. 1: Cast copper-alloy rimn fragment, measuring 112mm by 60mm in size with an original rim diameter of c40cm. The rim is thickened and there is a longitudinal ridge projecting down the outside of the fragment from the rim.

Object type: MINIATURE OBJECT
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
A worn copper-alloy Roman miniature axehead. This axehead is very simple; it is solid, rectangular in plan with rounded sides and terminals. It measures 19.5mm in length, 12.4mm in width at its widest point and is 6.5mm in thickness at its thickest point. It becomes thinner towards the blade end and at the other end has a circular hole where the axe shaft would be expected to occur. This hole is worn and appears to have been used for suspension which is unusual.

Object type: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
An incomplete worn copper-alloy unidentified object. Rectangular in shape measuring 50mm in length and 10mm in width. Only one longitudinal edge appears to be complete and this is thicker than the other worn incomplete edges. This edge is also very slightly curvilinear. To little of this object survives to identify it, there is a possiblity it could be a cast copper-alloy vessel rim fragment but this is by no means certain. Its date is also unknown.
