Copper-alloy ring, perhaps the frame from a brooch or buckle. The ring is nearly circular externally (25 x 26 mm) but internally one edge is shaped into a slight V with a dip in the centre. This may represent a constriction for a pin. The cross-section is roughly oval and 2.5 x 3.5 mm. The object weighs 3.58g.Perhaps medieval or early post-medieval, c1100-1650AD.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Three lead-alloy rings, all 21-22 mm in diameter. All have roughly circular or oval cross-sections; two are more chunky, about 3.5 mm in cross-section, and one is slimmer, 2-2.5 mm in cross-section. Lead-alloy rings of the chunky shape, but only 15 mm in diameter, are identified by Egan and Pritchard, Dress accessories, as early 15th-century shoe-buckles (1991, 62-4). Lead alloy is not strong, and so may not be suitable for other heavier uses. Probably 1400-1450AD.

A solid brow ridge runs from the nose to the hair. Above is a quiff-like hairstyle which curves down the back of the pinhead. The hair is decorated with oblique grooves either side of a central ve…

Object type: SOCKETED AXEHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Northamptonshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Bronze Age copper alloy socketed axe fragment, blade end. There are well filed casting lines running down either side. There are no raised ribs on either surface. There is a long groove on the broken end - the end of the socket. Very little of the cutting edge remains. The sides of the cutting edge do not flare - this does not appear to have been re-sharpened very often. Much of the original surface is missing on one side. The original surface has a fine brown patina. This may have been deliberately cut. Viewed from the sides the broken edge is slightly convex (a very shallow v), per…
