Cast copper alloy horse pendant suspension bar. The object is badly corroded. The bar is 65.5mm wide. At either end of the bar are perforations for iron rivets, of which traces of one are still apparent. There are decorative knops at each terminal of the bar.

Object type: MOUNT
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast copper alloy mount. The object is in the shape of an acorn, with an upper tag at an angle to the ovoid body of the mount. The upper half of this ovoid part has a textured surface, representing the upper shell of the acorn. This is separated from the lower half of the body by two horizontal, parallel incised lines. The lower half of the body is then smooth and otherwise undecorated. There are two integral rivets on the reverse, one at each point of the oval. This object was probably for mounting onto a strap, either a personal belt or a harness strap.

Japanese copper alloy mon, minted after 1668. This is a 'new Kan'ei' coin, based on the legs of the lefthand character (they do not meet at the base). There is a hole in the flan; this is possibly the result of a flaw in the casting of the coin.

Object type: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Broad period: ROMAN
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast copper alloy drum-shaped object. The object is similar in design to an item found at Winterton Roman Villa, identified as a 'reel', however, this object has a much larger central perforation than the Winterton example. There is no decoration. The object has a distinctive cylindrical drum shape with a narrow centre and flared terminals. The perforation runs through the centre of the object from top to bottom; it is irregularly formed at either mouth. The hole is filled with some kind of concretion or mineralisation. Another suggested use is as a spool, for example for thread.
