Glass. Fifteen tiny sherds of translucent glass, all of a greenish tint, two markedly paler, of which one blue-green piece has a crazed surface. Most appear of a similar bright green tint probably to be associated with wine bottles and appear to have been melted or partly melted. While this material might have had an industrial explanation if reported in significant quantity, a small group may more likely relate merely to glass from a fierce bonfire. Abraded and water worn. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1700-1900. Weight: 14.23gms

Copper alloy and wood whistle. Cast cylindrical tube with a rounded and collared end with an inserted drilled terminal knop retaining a large S-shaped link for suspension of the whistle. The tube has a pair of circumferential ribs between which lies an oval cut-out sounding hole. The cylinder is partly cut away at the mouthpiece, where a wooden insert controlled the ingress of air, and where it remains in lightly distorted form. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1850-1900.

Copper alloy whistle. A slightly tapered cylinder with a butted seam, expanding towards a separate collared end with an inserted stopper through which is threaded a drawn wire loop retaining a single die stamped ring. Opposed drilled holes lie near the mouthpiece end, where they would permit modulation of the tone of the whistle. An inserted metal reed appear within the mouthpiece.

Copper alloy whistle. Cast whistle, with a short cylindrical middle part with a semi-circular cut-out as a sounding hole, and with a collared hemispherical end with an elongated knop with a hole drilled from both sides for suspension. The mouthpiece was cast along with the rest, and tapers slightly viewed from above, and is markedly narrowed if the object is viewed in profile. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1850-1900.

Lead alloy whistle. A cylindrical tube with a D-shaped cut-out in its upper surface, and a narrowed end with a D-shaped mouth piece. A mould line appears along both sides.

Buff Coloured medium compacted Sandstone (non-specialist identification by MF). Whetstone. Tapered hone of square section, carefully shaped and smoothed by use on all four sides, chipped at its narrow end and broken at the other. Either point-sharpening grooves or, more likely, post-depositional damage, occurs on one flat face; one aris also bears damage post-dating use of the object. The rectangular form is common for Roman hones, but continued in use - as perhaps did some of the same hones - into the Anglo-Saxon period. At this later period, large and carefully shaped hones,…

Dark grey micaceous Mudstone possible hone fragment. Fragment from a possible hone; a needle or point sharpening groove of width 3mm runs along the one unbroken edge. The use of such stone, perhaps derived from glacial Drift, may argue an early date and local manufacture. Suggested date: Roman, 43-410. Length:49.6mm, Width: 20.2mm, Thickness: 13.3mm, Weight: 15.10gms.

Compacted Sandstone water rolled cobble, probable whetstone; a sparkling surface indicates the presence of mica or other abrasive constituents in a sandy matrix, and hence suitability as a sharpening stone. This large sub-triangular flat-sided stone has one large flat surface smoothed and dished by wear. Other surfaces are unmodified, though scratches from plough strike appear on all. The use of improvised hones is characteristic of a long period from later Prehistory to the Viking Age. A rock of this size might be used to sharpen large tools such as a scythe or spade iron. It may hav…

Fine-grained compacted Sandstone whetstone fragment. A rectangular-section bar hone fragment, tapered towards a slightly worn wedge shape at one end, broken at the other. One of the broader flat sides is lightly dished by wear and all four sides are smoothed with a reasonably sharp aris where each side meets its neighbour. The simple form and material may together point to a Roman or Anglo-Saxon date, as Scandinavian stones would later come to dominate the medieval market for sharpening stones. This reporter has suggested a broad division between personal hones, which might be worn at…

Fine-grained compacted Sandstone whetstone, as kindly identified by the finder. A narrow boat-shaped fragment of stone, rubbed smooth and flat on its opposed broader faces, and to a lesser extent by wear which has left its narrower sides lightly rounded. Broken at both ends, the larger break probably being recent. The use of varied sharpening stones is characteristic of the period between the Roman-era Iron Age and the Middle Saxon period.

Fine-grained compact grey possibly Sandstone with occasional sparkling flecks on its sides; whetstone, as kindly identified by the finder. The material has a superficial resemblance to the volcanic Greenstone used to make Neolithic group 6 axes, and specialist examination of the broken surface might determine whether such an axe may have been reworked and reused in this case. At all events, this is now a straight-sided bar-shaped hone of rectangular section, rounded at one end and broken at the other. All flat surfaces are lightly dished by wear towards the centre of the object; a fac…

Grey-green fine grained compact Sandstone, possible whetstone fragment, as kindly suggested by the finder. A small and probably water-rolled pebble of sub-rectangular section, possibly dished by wear on one of its wider flat faces, but with no other trace of utilisation. Rounded, probably naturally, at one end, and broken at the other; subsequently abraded. This may be a small or personal hone improvised from a chance discovery from glacial Drift. The use of varied improvised hones, rubbing stones and smoothers was common from later Prehistory to the Middle Saxon period. Suggested dat…

Fine-grained Sandstone possible whetstone fragment, as kindly identified by the finder. A fragment from the tapering end of a cobble whose sub-triangular section may initially have been defined by natural erosion by wind-blown sand or water. These smooth faces, however, appear to have been further smoothed by use as a sharpening stone, resulting in the formation of a shallow concavity or dishing on one of the sides. The improvised use of erratic pebbles as sharpening stones was common from later Prehistory, through the Roman period, and into the Early Medieval period. Suggested date: …

Grey composite stone whetstone fragment. A fragment of a cylindrical sharpening stone, with one narrow longitudinal flattened face from use, subsequently broken raggedly at both ends and bearing deep surface chips. The composite material appears glittering and sandy in its texture, is almost certainly artificially formed to this shape, and may also have been absorbent if treated with oil. These are all features suggesting a recent date. Suggested date: Modern, 1925-1975 Length: 105mm, Diameter: 37.6mm, Weight: 192.27gms

Copper alloy Wheel. Probably pressed metal flanged wheel with three round apertures and a lug, probably one half of a two-part pulley wheel. The flange has opposed spurs probably relating to its function; the hub of the wheel projects externally and is dimpled within, it was probably gripped externally by paired brackets. Possibly from a domestic pulley system, as used to raise and lower indoor clothes drying racks; similar objects also served to route bell pull wires where domestic servants were employed, and for related purposes.

Copper alloy weight. Cast rectangular weight, with a stamped design, now indistinct, enclosed within a circular border on one side. The good definition of arises between the flat sides may suggest this object was filed to shape, though corrosion now obscures surface detail. This could approach one third of a French Troy ounce (30.6gms), which would be 10.2gms (Egan 1998, The Medieval Household, page 310, no. 979). Suggested date: Medieval, 1350-1450.

Lead Weight. Cast disc with stamped design of an arched crown above CIIR. The reverse appears plain, though lightly gouged. This is probably a one half ounce weight, albeit now of slightly short measure. It closely resembles weights issued in Norwich or derived from them, where the customary use of lead weights enabled easier production than the contemporary London series made of copper alloy.
