A complete cast copper alloy double looped buckle of probable later medieval or post-medieval date (1350-1650). The buckle frame is complete being broadly oval (figure of eight) in plan with a slight central bar. The pin is lost but would have been formed from a length of copper alloy sheet that was attached to the central bar by the end being folded to form an irregular 'wrap around' loop. There is a slight notch at the mid point of the axis bar which may have helped centralise the pin. However, there is no decoration present and the frame does not have a pin rest notch on the extant…

A cast copper alloy sheet metal domed mount, possibly a book mount, of probable medieval date (1200-1450). The mount is broadly rectangular in plan with a central raised boss / dome. From each corner a small pierced triangular tab extends. It is through these four fixing points the mount would have been secured to the surface of a book or possibly a casket / piece of furniture. On the upper edge is a circular perforation; the function of this hole is unknown - also it may have been caused by surface corrosion rather than being deliberate. The reverse face is plain and undecorated; the…

Object type: AXE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A near complete but reworked knapped, ground and polished flint axehead of probable later Neolithic date (3000-2000 BC). The axe is knapped from a light grey coloured flint with a milky white coloured surface patina. There is considerable mid orange staining across the reworked surface and this is possibly as a result in the burial environment - possibly indicating deposition within soils that are iron rich or have a predilection towards iron panning / waterlogging. The axe is broadly sub-rectangular in plan and sub-oval (humped) in cross section. In plan the sides of the axe taper fr…

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A fragment of a Neolithic partially polished flint axehead or chisel, the cutting edge reworked probably in the Early Bronze Age, and probably after the original object had been damaged, to form a knife, scraper or other tool. It measures 42.32x52.92x13.77mm and weighs 28.92g. The flint is 100% heavily patinated, although the narrow flake removal scars on the retouched face are of a slightly different colour to the patination of the polished areas (towards the cutting edge on this face). There are patches of iron staining from the soil on both faces. Peter Reavill comments "It is …

A worn fragment of copper-alloy casting waste of probable Bronze Age to Roman date (c. 1500 BC - AD 410). This object is oval in plan and sub-triangular in section, with one side tapering moderately and the other more gently from the centre of the upper surface. Along the upper surface of this artefact are the remains of a single casting jet or runner, which runs the length of the object and is rectangular in plan; it is also heavily abraded which has resulted in the loss of the complete form of the jet. The underside of this fragment is slightly convex and heavily worn, with the side…
