A silver sexfoil mount of Medieval date. It is dome shaped with a hollow back with six evenly shaped facets radiating from the centre. It has a central hole for a separate circular rivet which is missing. It is flattened in half, most likely due to post-depositional damage.

An Early Medieval (Anglo Saxon) copper alloy circular mount dating to the 8th century. This mount is circular and dished, so the front surface is convex and the reverse is concave.

An incomplete copper-alloy mount in the form of a sitting bird. The bird is three-dimesional and has a solid oval head with a long beak. The body is convex, pointed oval in plan and has two incomplete stubs of metal projecting from the rim on the underside. These two tabs would have joined to form a circular loop. The object has a mid-green patina with small areas of pitting on the surface. The bird depicted resembles a duck and other similar examples appear to support this interpretation.

Silver mount. Cast plate in the form of a cross potent, now roughly folded and flattened. The motif might be apt to the decoration of the cover of a missal, breviary or reliquary. A symbol resembling two conjoined lozenges is stamped into the bar at the end of one of the arms. When combined with smaller similar crosses in its angles, this symbol would become the Cross of Jerusalem, the badge of that Crusader kingdom - the military Orders held extensive lands in eastern England, though their local importance was primarily economic. This object is to be considered as Treasure on account…
