Object type: CASTING WASTE
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Lancashire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A fragment of copper alloy, probable casting waste, possibly of Bronze Age dating (2150 BC to 800 BC).

It is a mid to dark green colour. A couple of small areas of iron staining, probably due to impurities in the copper. An e…
