This is a medieval (circa late 13th century) silver gilt, annular brooch. This example is also decorated with a niello inlay. Niello is a black inlay composed of sulphides of silver and copper, used in the medieval period to distinguish incised decoration on silver and gold. The brooch has a wide flat dished form with a slightly convex upper surface, that surface is then decorated with a series of 18 rows of punched 'dots' separated by chip carved grooves, each set on an angle to the radial, forming a 'swirl' decoration. The grooves were filled with the niello and the whole surface wa…

Object type: FLANGED AXEHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Wrexham
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An Early Bronze Age flanged axehead. Record made from photograph only, dimensions and weight not recorded. The flanged sides of the axe appear to have been cast and follow the sides as they start to curve into the backs of the blade. The sides diverge gradually before splaying out dramatically into a broad, crescentic blade. A transverse median ridge is visible midway along each side and there is also a slight, curved ridge as the sides widen into the blade. The axehead has a fine brown patina but the tip of one end of the blade is lost. It is also suffering from bronze disease, surfa…

An incomplete Roman brooch of Colchester derivative, Polden Hill (Mackreth 2011, Part 3, Group 4.a-b, flat wing ends type). The axial rod is intact and the pierced top of the pin through which the rod passes, to create a hinge, is present but the majority of the pin is missing. While the axial rod lies within a tubular crossbar half of this part is also missing along with both end caps (if there ever were any) and the rod is liable to slide out. Part of the catchplate survives on the reverse of the bow. Some of the smooth original surface survives and is a dark green colour, but much …

Object type: AXE HAMMER
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Powys
Workflow stage: Published
This is a (very) small early Bronze Age/late Neolithic perforated stone axe hammer. The axe is in the form of a ‘teardrop’ with a parallel profile. The perforation is ‘egg timer’ shape, opening from a central diameter of 13.5 mm to 20.7 mm at the outer surface. The overall style is consistent with an early class 1 Axe Hammer from Roe’s ‘Typology of Stone Implements with Shafts’. However, whilst the profile fits, the size does not. This object is very small at just 7.32 cm long, the more typical axe hammer is double that and more. This particular implement may t…

This is a copper alloy Roman bow brooch from the 1st or 2nd century AD. From inspecting the head, it is clear that this brooch held an axis bar (fragments remain in situ) and that there was probably a lug, holding the chord at the top of the brooch. The wings may also have been decorated with vertical lines although much of the ends have now corroded away, along with the foot and catch plate. The characteristics of this brooch suggest that it is a 'Polden Hill' type. The patination is dark green with some oxidation and flaking of the surface. On the underside of the bow, there are …

This is a copper alloy Colchester derivative Polden Hill (Mackreth Group 4, flat wing ends), Mackreth 2011, 4.a, 4.b., 4.c. This example is the typical two piece construction with the main body of the brooch and a now missing, spring and pin assembly. In style, this is perhaps Polden Hill with the end-caps having been broken away but leaving us with their trace in what remains. Thus the spring, axial rod and pin have been lost as has the foot of the bow. The bow is plain but for two longitudinal ridges running down each side of the head. The crossbar is short and undecorated. Much of …

This is a typical example of a brooch of Colchester derivative Polden Hill (flat wing ends type, West Midlands), cf. Mackreth 2011, 4.a-4.b, 4c, Plate 46, of 1st or 2nd century AD date. The head and bow are now all that remains with the spring and foot piece missing. Overall, the brooch is heavily corroded and in some sections, that damage reveals what may be an iron core to the bow? The remaining patina is dark green.
