Flake with edge trimmed towards the point which is a natural feature. Some cortex remains on the dorsal side which acts as backing. The ventral side has a flat back. The flint is dark grey in colour and has no inclusions and was likely derived from a local beach pebble. Butler (2005) illustrates a similar example on page 186, Fig 76 No.1 which is dated to the later Neolithic.

The centre of the weight has damage to both sides indicating possible re-use, the purpose of which is unknown. Ryals were only issued 1464-1470 AD although they circulated for longer; however later weights tend to be square so this example probably dates to 1464-1600 AD.

It is now a flake but originally a blade as there is a break or snap along one edge. Can be described as a truncated flake which has had trim, or light serration, along two edges. There is also an incipient notch, not enought to describe the object as a notched flake. There is a flat edge at the proximal, opposite the snapped edge. The flint is light brown in colour and slightly translucent and was likely derived from a local beach pebble.

Object type: POT
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Pottery body sherd made of gabbroic clay that weathers over the gabbro outcrop on the Lizard in Cornwall. There appears to be an eroded applied cordon running horizontally across the width of the sherd, which can be seen in profile where the original join has since fractured. The fabric has inclusions of pale felspars, dark augite and mica and is mid-brown on the exterior and interior of the sherd with a dark brown core. This 'mucky' gabbroic fabric and type of decoration is seen on Grooved Ware vessels, dating from c.2900-2400 BC (Henrietta Quinnell, forthcoming). Anna Brindley in …

Record ID: BUC-A93A56
Object type: TOKEN
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Buckinghamshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Late medieval to post medieval cast uniface lead-alloy token of Powell Class 3. It is decorated on one side with eight straight lines radiating out from the centre to meet a plain line border at the edge. Two pairs of adjacent lines are joined by irregular raised blobs, probably from mis-casting. The reverse is plain. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally. They are therefore hard to date precisely and examples with simple designs could be medieval to late post medieval in date (c. AD 1250-1800).
