A twisted wire copper alloy brooch of modern date. The brooch survives as a ring made of four circular cross sectioned bands of copper alloy that have been twisted together. The item has been heavily cleaned so it is difficult to date from patina; no parallels have yet been found.
The item is 26.1mm in diameter, 6.1mm thick and weighs 12.17 grams.

A copper alloy seal matrix of later medieval date (1250 - 1450 AD). The seal matrix is circular in plan with a rectangular cross section. The reverse face is plain and undecorated. It has a vertical rib which divides the reverse evenly into two parts - the upper part extends to form an attachment loop. The front face of the matrix depicts a central design around which is an inscription. The central design is complex and well cut - it comprises a square which has a lozenge of same size imposed over it to form a star. The central area of the strat has a desing which is unclear . The inscription is poorly preserved - the forms of the letters suggest a 14th century date. The inscription is unreadable and is enclosed by a circumferential line which respects the outer edge of the seal. The matrix is of a light-mid greencolour with an even patina.
The seal is 23.1mm in diameter, 3.3mm thick and weighs 5.48 grams.
This type of seal is dated to the fourteenth centuries, 1300-1400. Similar personal seals can be seen in the Medieval Catalogue of Salisbury Museum, these are all dated within this time period.There are also similar examples recorded on the database: eg. HESH-33DF18.

Discussion: From BERK-A92065 "Known as the 'Gallic War uniface' stater these coins were struck by the Ambiani in northern France almost certainly during the Gallic War [period] (c. 60-50 BC ) and imported into Britain during the late first century BC. These gold coins are frequently found in southern Britain where they circulated in large numbers, and where some [varieties] may also have been produced. "

A fragment of a copper alloy spear probably dating to the Middle or Late Bronze Age (c. 1500-800 BC). The fragment consists of the tip of the spear blade, which is triangular in plan. The tip is slender with a pronounced middle rib which tapers to the edges in 'wings', creating a rounded lozenge-shaped cross section. The fragment terminates in an irregular old break.
The spear tip measures 34.2mm long, 13.2mm wide, 4.4mm thick and weighs 4.62 grams.
As only the tip of the spear remains, it is difficult to date this object more precisely than the Middle to Late Bronze Age period, c. 1500-800 BC. Several similar examples can be seen on the database: eg. SUSS-16EB24 and SUR-151190.

A fragment of late Roman or possibly very Early Medieval copper alloy buckle frame, c.AD 375-450, Hawkes & Dunning type 1A.
The fragment consists of one side of the broadly 'D' shaped buckle frame including part of the narrowed strap bar, the side edge and part of the moulded decoration of the wider end of the frame. The decoration is unclear and consists of a series of transverse grooves decorated with drilled pellets the top of which appears to represent a lions head. The reverse of the buckle is flat and undecorated.
Measuremnets: 25.7mm long, 13.6mm wide, 3.8mm thick and weighs 2.95 grams.
A very similar complete buckle was found at Trier, in modern germany from which dating and typology comes. Hawkes & Dunning (1961, 21) date their class 1a from the late 4th century to the middle of the 5th century. The Lion example type is however not common.
