Two fragments of Roman window glass. Cast window glass was probably produced by pouring molten glass into trays resulting in relatively thick panes with a characteristic flat, rough underside, a glossy, slightly undulating upper surface, frequently with tooling marks and a rounded edge (Boon 1966). Most cast window glass is blue/green, as are these examples, but pale green, greenish colourless and colourless fragments are also known. 1: roughly triangular shaped fragment, 22.93mm by 12.16mm in size, 2.23mm in thickness, 1.12g in weight. 2: Roughly rectangular fragment, 11.02…

A complete copper alloy whistle of probable Post-Medieval date (AD 1500 – AD 1800). Length: 40.0mm; maximum diameter: 14.8mm; minimum diameter: 9.0mm. Weight: 7.16g. The main body of the whistle is made of sheet copper alloy. It has been folded to form a tubular truncated cone-shape and has a longitudinal soldered seam which has sprung slightly along about half of its length. The tube expands in diameter, from the open mouth-piece, where its minimum diameter is 9.0mm, to the opposite closed end, where its maximum diameter is 14.8mm. It has two oval perforations which are known as …

The reported object is a small whistle made of silver sheet. It is complete, retaining a small suspension ring (for a ribbon) on its underside. It is plain without maker's mark or decoration, and has a domed end which has been soldered to the pipe. Metal Content Analysis to ascertain the elemental composition of the artefacts was carried out by Mary Davis using a CamScan MaXim 2040 analytical scanning electron microscope (SEM), plus an Oxford Instruments Link Isis energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDX). The object was examined whole within the specimen chamber and analysed for 100…

A Post Medieval pottery base from a German Whiteware: Polychrome bird whistle (1575-1625). The fabric is fine buff with a glossy brown, green and yellow lead-glaze, usually with the brown glaze representing the wings and eyes which are further accentuated by scored outlines. Only the base of the whistle is present in this case but originally the body of the bird would have been in the form of a small splayed footed pot with the head and whistle-tube applied. The whistle outlet is through the top of the head. Dimensions: diameter: 24.10mm; weight: 6.55g. Reference: Hurst, J. G., Neal, …

Bone whistle made from mammal bone, probably a sheep or goat metacarpal, measuring 74 mm in length, 11 mm in diameter, with a thickness of 2mm. The curved face has one very neat hole drilled or bored into it toward the proximal end, presumably for the thumb. The flat face has two neat holes drilled or bored in it c.5mm from the thumbhole on the other side. Although broken at both ends, the preservation of the bone is good.

Medieval lead object fragment, possibly the bulb from a boatswains' or pilgrims' whistle. Three-dimensional hollow object, originally domed or sub-spherical and with a suspension loop, is it now broken at the 'base' (opposite the suspension loop) and squashed flat. The surviving surface is decorated with two ring and dots, flanking a longitudinal herringbone line. The other surface is damaged and distorted but what survives appears to have been decorated in the same way (can make out two ring-and dots). There is no wear on the loop. The casting line runs down the sides of the loop and …

Lead object, probably a post medieval whistle, in the shape of a key. Bent into a 'W' shape. Head in the form of a lis with a cylindrical projection from the central lobe - the projection has a small circular perforation, which is presumably a blow-hole. In the centre of the lis on one surface is raised open cylinder, which may also be perforated, although this is not clear - this may have acted as a sound-hole. At the base of the head is a linear projection - it is not clear what this is for, or if it is broken. Double plain collar at the junction of the head and shaft. The shaft is h…

A cast lead alloy (pewter?) whistle in the form of a pipe bowl, dating from 1750 -1900. The bowl is damaged with the entire rim missing. It is cast and there are projecting blobs along the casting spur. The bowl is long and oval and sits relatively vertically. There is a short rounded spur on the heel instead of a flat platform which suggests a date later than 1600 (Ayto, 2002, Shire Album 37: Clay tobacco pipes). The stem has broken off. There is some decoration near the stem in the form of a row of arches in relief. The pipe bowl is 34.3mm high, measures 24.6mm from the broken end…

County: Cumbria
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Heavy, round stone, possibly granite. While the underside is round and has a very rough surface, the top is very smooth and almost indented. It is very likely that the stone has been used as a whetstone for, possibly, arrowheads, smaller spearheads, knives, axe blades, etc. However, the date of Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age has only been given tentatively - it may have been much younger than that. Since it was an unassociated find, it is difficult to attach a clear date to it.

A small domestic whetstone, of unknown date (probably medieval). Due to the lack of context it is difficult to date this example, but an identical one can be seen the exhibition of objects found at the excavations of Corfe Castle (Dorset), they were used to sharpen knives and other blades. The stone from which the whetstone has been carved is probably Quartzite. The stone has been chipped and ground into shape and has a chamfered edges. It is rectangular in shape with a square butt end, the opposite terminal has a tapering end. At the butt end there is a hole through the stone.

A Medieval – Post Medieval stone whetstone (AD 1400 – 1750). The stone is an irregular rectangle in plan with both the large surfaces showing heavy polishing through use. There are transverse irregular grooves cutting across the polished surfaces. These may be scars caused by testing the sharpness of the blades, or caused by flaws in the stone, or they may indicate the stone was reused for another function after its use as a whetstone. The edges are very abraded which probably occurred post deposition. Along one side there is a large, shallow, vertical groove; this possible ac…

Large hone stone. Roughly rectangular in section, with evidence of heavy or long-term use. Material is a fine-grained micaceous garnet schist (almost certainly from the same imported source as other local Honestones in the Yorkshire Museum collection) suggesting a late Anglo-Scandinavian date. The heavy wear may suggest prolonged use into the medieval period.
