Object type: SPINDLE WHORL
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A worn and corroded, broadly circular cast lead object, possibly a spindle whorl or other weight. The whorl is plano-convex, with a trapezoidal cross-section. The top is generally flattened, with one side shallowly angled, possibly as a result of wear. It is basic and has suffered heavy corrosion and some pitting all over. It is seemingly undecorated. The artefact has a central hole with a diameter of c. 8.3mm. The object is 10.3mm thick and weighs 26.53g. It has been pointed out that the weight of a spindle whorl is suggestive of the thickness of yarn produced, with lighter spindl…

A cast lead spindle whorl of Roman or later date. It is circular in form, dome-shaped in section with a central circular aperture. The back face is flat but has a slight lip or rim around the edge resultant from the method of manufacture. It measures 23.45mm in diameter, 9.27mm in thickness, and weighs 27.03g. This is a lead spindle whorl that may be of any date from the Roman period onwards although perhaps most likely from the Medieval or Post-Medieval periods.

A cast lead weight of uncertain date. It has a flat circular base from which extends a tapering rectangular shaft that is triangular in profile. At the pointed top of the weight is a single very small circular central aperture. It measures 17.27mm in height, 10.83mm in diameter at base, and weighs 6.79g. This is a small lead weight of uncertain function or date. It is likely to be Post-Medieval or later, although an earlier date cannot be ruled out entirely.

A cast copper-alloy bead of uncertain Bronze Age or later date. It is biconical in form with flattened top and bottom surfaces and a central circular perforation. Some of the exterior surfaces show signs of post-depostional wear and/or corrosion, the majority of the surfaces having a dark green patina. It measures 10.07mm in external diameter, 3.84mm in internal diameter, 5.29mm in height/thickness, and weighs 1.47g. This bead could date to any period from the Bronze Age onwards, although its form and findspot might indicate a Roman to Early-Medieval date range.

Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A cast copper-alloy belt or strap fitting of possible Late Roman to Early Anglo-Saxon date. It is formed from a single, thick rectangular sheet of copper alloy with rounded ends that is folded so that the ends meet at the attachment end of the object. The two ends are held together by a large cylindrical copper-alloy rivet that has flattened circular heads. This produces a curved, almost U-shaped profile with an oval shaped aperture through which a strap or belt fitting may have passed. On the exterior surface of the curved face there is incised decoration formed from double grooves t…

A large, roughly rectangular lump of bronze slag, airholes throughout and some elements of the raw copper sulphide are visible (a green-blue colour). The slag has a good deep green patina, similar to that seen on some local Bronze Age metalwork, so it may date from this period. If this lump of slag is indeed Bronze Age, it is interesting that it has survived and was not re-melted, as it is quite an amount of bronze.

No parallel was found for this object and although it was initially considered as a possible Iron Age potin this is unlikely and a more likely date, based on design is Post Medieval.

Object type: WHETSTONE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Worked object probably for use as a whetstone. The object is rectangular in plan and sub-rectangular in cross-section. Each end of the object is slightly rounded. The two sides of the object have both been worked and patterns of ware are visible. One side shows more use than the other, the centre of which is slightly convex. On the wider surfaces of the stone small inclusions of mica can be seen, however none are visible on the used sides. The stone is mid brown in colour. This object may have been in use from Pre-history to the Post-Medieval period. An exact date is unknown.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper alloy harness ring probably dating from the Medieval or Post Medieval period. It is a plain sub circular ring with no markings or decoration. It is sub hexagonal in section. It may have been used to hold a bridle or halter together. It is also possible that it could have been a belt ring. It has a diameter of 27.95mm, thickness 3.08mm, weight 4.46g.

Record ID: SUSS-FB8023
Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: West Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast lead piece, probably a plain weight.. It is conical with a circular base, tapering sides and an irregular, broken top. There are numerous cuts and indents in the side. It is 49.8mm tall, 23.3mm in diameter at the base; it weighs 96 grams. Plain lead weights were made locally for a wide range of uses. They are therefore hard to date accurately and can be Roman - Post Medieval in date although most are from the latter part of this range.

Record ID: SUSS-25EF81
Object type: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: West Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Fragment of cast copper alloy. It is thin but part of a cast item with a curved, cross section at one end, flatter at the other with a very slightly raised rectangular stripe running down the centre of the convex side. It has an irregular outline with old breaks at the edges. It is 27.5mm by 21.3mm by 2.7mm thick; it weighs 5.92 grams. Due to the smallness and broken nature of this fragment it is hard to definitvely identify which item it was part of.
