A silver rivet of Post-Medieval to Modern date. This rivet weighs 0.93g and has a total length of 6.6mm. The rivet head has a sub-circular shape, fairly flat reverse and domed external surface that has been decorated. The decoration was probably formed through the process of punch stamping or moulding. Some of the domed head is depressed leaving other areas appearing as if in relief. It is possible, if not probable, that this decoration is a small part of a larger area of decoration. If so, the decoration could have been stamped, after the rivet was in place through the rest …

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A gold finger-ring of unknown date. The finger-ring weighs 2.25g, has a circular hoop and rectangular cross-section. The external diameter is 18.3mm and the thickness of the band varies from 1.3mm to 0.7mm. The width of the band varies between 2.7mm and 4.3mm. The edges of the band are not straight and parallel to each other nor do they seem to have been shaped with any intentional form in mind, suggestive that a scrap strip of metal was formed into a continuous hoop without attempt to neaten the sides. While some of that might be the result of later damage, this i…

Probably an axehead, or possibly an adze, of Mesolithic date. This prehistoric tool has been knapped (struck) out of flint. Most of the artefact survives though there is some damage particularly at the cutting edge which removed some of the diagnostic area that might have helped determine more conclusively between axehead and adze. In its current condition the object weighs 167.98g. It has maximum dimensions of: length of 141.9mm, width 38.4mm and thickness 28.7mm. Mostly a medium to dark deep toffee colour with lesser patches of beige, pale brown/dark cream colour.
