An incomplete Post Medieval mirror with an openwork lead-alloy surround (17th century). The artefact is teardrop-shaped with a layer of mirroring on the front and back, held in place by a decorative lead-alloy frame. On either side of the top point of the frame is an openwork loop, with another openwork loop in between them to form a triangular arrangement. The arrangement is very suggestive of a decorative attachment loop, either for a pendant, or for a toy mirror. On each side of the lead-alloy frame beneath these loops are three s-shaped curlicues, evenly spaced to cover the entire …

Silver circular shoe buckle with separate spindle set into the shank within the ring. Worn. The reverse stamped with maker's mark RG, possibly as recorded in Jackson' Silver and Gold Marks, ed. Pickford, 1989, p. 146 with recorded use for 1691-2. This would fit the dating of the buckle type but this does not mean the buckle is of this date, just roughly, and it is not possible to securely date it to pre 1707 and as such it falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996.

The loop is slightly distorted and the coiled section is pulled down the straight shaft. The loop is decorated with a finer gauge wire. This finer wire is coiled and then coiled again around the loop. It is broken in places along its length. …

Three fragments of a lead alloy circular openwork frame, possibly part of a brooch. The design consists of a repeating pattern of circular settings (possibly originally intended for an inlay) open on each side, with an ornate openwork arch between. The central area is open, with an original diameter of approximately 40mm. It is not clear which side was the front but the edge bordering the central opening has a slight lip on one side. On this side the circular settings are bordered with radiating lines as if to imitate claws in a stone setting. Between them (on this side only) are small…
