LIN-A69390: BLADE
A collection of three flint secondary and tertiary bladelets of Mesolithic to early Neolithic date (c. 10,000 BC - 4000 BC). They are brownish grey in colour and semi-translucent at the edges. 1) The first bladelet is long and sub-rectangular in plan, with long sides that are almost parallel. It is rounded at the proximal end and square at the distal end. It is sub-trapezoidal in cross-section.The ventral face is generally flat and smooth, with a shallow bulb of percussion. There may be some very fine, short, scaled retouching at the distal end. Overall dimensions: 37.63mm in length, 18.19mm in width, 12.13mm in thickness and 10.08g in weight. 2) The second bladelet is also sub-rectuangular in plan with long parallel sides. The object is squared at the proximal end and rounded at the distal end with some evidence of mid-brown cortex also at the distal end. The ventral face is flat and smooth with evidence of bulbar scars. There may be some very fine high-angled, scaled retouching along the right-hand blade edge. Overall dimensions: 39.9mm in length, 15.75mm in width, 6.62mm in thickness and 4.9g in weight. 3) The third bladelet is sub-oval in shape with long, near parallel sides with two natural indents on opposite edges and rounded proximal and distal ends. The distal end also shows some signs of patination. The ventral face is smooth and convex towards the distal end. There is also evidence of bulbar scars. There is some possible stepped retouching along the distal edge. Overall dimensions: 41.12mm in length, 16.62mm in width, 7.16mm in thickness and 3.47g in weight.

LIN-A50FE8: STRAP END
An incomplete copper alloy strap end dating to the Medieval period (c. AD 1300-1500). The object is a possible composite strap end, though the end where the spacer would be is now missing. The strap end is circular in plan with an oval, pointed, collared knop at the terminal. The main body of the strap end is flat and the face has some possible decoration though it is too corroded to accurately decipher. The reverse is undecorated and a hole has developed in the lower half through corrosion or wear, which is beginning to appear on the front face of the object. The strap end is similar to no. 80.283/11 (figure 92, MoL cited in Egan and Pritchard 2002: 141). The overall dimensions are as follows: 28.22mm in length, 14.1mm in width, 4.32mm in thickness and 2.96g in weight.

LIN-288CDB: BUCKLE
An incomplete copper alloy buckle dating to the Medieval period (c. AD 1350-1400). The buckle has a rounded knop with a collar at the base. From the knop the frame extends into an D-shape, with the bar slightly recessed from the frame. On the frame at either end of the bar are two indents indicating the terminals of the bar. The pin is no longer attached though a notch where it once sat on the bar is still apparent. The patina is smooth, dark green in colour, and has is no decoration. See Egan's Dress Accessories (1991: 94) no.421, which is similar in shape. The overall dimensions are as follows: 15.13mm in length, 22.37mm in width, 4mm in thickness and 1.87g in weight.

LIN-28672F: VESSEL
A fragment of a copper alloy vessel dating to the Medieval to Post Medieval period (c. AD 1000-1700). The fragment is part of the leg of a cooking vessel such as a small cauldron. The pot leg is sub-triangular in cross-section, with a slightly concave inner surface. The leg is rounded and flares into a hoof-like foot with three toes. The base of the foot is flat. The metal is very uneven and dark to mid-green in colour, with patches of light grey. As stated by Hitchen (2018) copper alloy vessels were commonly used for cooking during the Medieval to Post Medival period, from which point they were gradually phased out in favour of cast-iron pots and saucepans designed for kitchen ranges. As such it is difficult to closely date this object without any further archaeological context. The overall dimensions are as follows: 21.02 mm long, 18.38 mm wide,13.45 mm thick and 9.15g in weight.

An incomplete copper alloy zoomorphic (bird) plate brooch dating to the Roman period (c. AD 50-200). The brooch is in the form of a raptor bird, possibly an eagle, in relief with the feathers indicated by incised line decoration and the eyes and beak cast. The underside of the brooch retains the remains of the integral hinge to hold the pin and the catchplate. Both extend outwards from the reverse of the brooch at a 90 degree angle. The hinge also has iron staining, therefore the pin and/or hinge mechanism were iron, though these are now missing. This brooch is similar in form to no. 14800 (Mackreth 2011, Chapter 7, Part 3, OBJECT Type 4. c. Plate 126), though the example seen in the book is a dove. The pose is very similar to the raptor bird with both in relief and tails splayed out. The overall dimensions are as follows: 39.02mm in length, 11.66mm in width, 25.2mm in thickness and 12.21g in weight.

LIN-89C1FD: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
A fragment of sheet copper alloy, probably dating to the Medieval period (c. AD 1000-1500). The fragment is now roughly square in shape, with a geometric design of three inter-connecting incised semi-circles on the face. The two vertical edges have been cut following the lines of the deocration on the face of the object, whilst the two horizontal edges are straight. The top edge has a flattened lip measuring 6.44mm in length and the lower edge has a mottled border from which the semi-circles extend. The semi-circles are double lined and with dashed or zig-zag incised decoration in between. There is also evidence of gilding on the face of the object. The reverse is undecorated. The sheet has been bent upwards to form a rough V-shape. Two similar unidetified objects with similar desgins have been recorded on the PAS database: KENT-AA9A22 and LIN-481267 and both have been dated to the Early Medieval to Medieval periods. Comparing the object in question here to these examples a tentative Medieval date has been applied.

LIN-78EE37: JETTON
Late Medieval French Tournai stock jetton dating to c. AD 1415-1497. Obverse depicts a crown and the reverse depicts a triple stranded straight cross fleuretty in a four arched tressure. The edges have degraded slightly and the reverse is worn thus obscuring the legend. Overall dimensions: 26.63mm in diameter and 3.74g in weight.

LIN-78C167: WEIGHT
A large cast and lathe turned copper alloy trade weight of late Medieval to Post Medieval date (c. AD 1450-1550). The weight is circular, flat, and decorated with two incised concentric circles at the outer edge and one in the centre on the face. The central circle is decorated with a stamped crown. The reverse is plain aside from a central perforation and a series of light concentric grooves indicating the use of the lathe. Similar examples recorded on the database include: LIN-372E1F; HESH-915723; and ESS-5736D1. The overall dimensions are as follows: 37.24mm in diameter, 3.58mm in thickness and 26.44g in weight.

LIN-787EFD: COIN WEIGHT
A complete copper alloy coin weight dating to AD 1771. The weight is well worn but the majority of the details are still apparent on the obverse and reverse. Obverse: COIND // SINCE // 1771 Reverse: D G // 5 * 8 Overall dimensions: 19.4mm in diameter, 3.51mm in thickness and 6.97g in weight.

A silver William III probable shilling dating to AD 1695-1702. The coin is extremely worn meaning the reverse and mint are illegible. The coin has also been bent into a rough S-shape. Along with the well worn obverse and reverse this indicates that this coin was intended for use as a love token. Coins of William III were commonly converted into love tokens and this example is the correct size for a shilling of William III, although the obverse and reverse are too worn to accurately identify the coin. The overall dimensions are as follows: 21.69mm in diameter and 2.5g in weight.

LIN-78125B: COIN
A Roman copper alloy nummus of an unknown emperor dating to AD 296-402. The coin is extremely worn, therefore making the reverse type and mint illegible. Overall dimensions: 22.13mm in diameter and 3.59g in weight.

LIN-77EC31: PURSE
A fragment of a copper alloy purse bar dating to the Late Medieval to Post Medieval period (c. AD 1450-1600). The bar is circular in section and has a slight curve. There are two integral suspension loops extending from one side. The bar is undecorated and has a brown patina. The bar terminates in worn breaks at either end. The overall dimensions are as follows: 59.24mm in length, 6.06mm in diameter, 10.13mm in thickness and 12.32g in weight.

LIN-77A2AC: STRAP END
A fragment of a copper alloy strap end dating to the Medieval period (c. AD 1200-1400). The fragment represents what is most likely the terminal of a composite strap end, which would once have comprised of two plates of sheet metal extending from the flat end of this example. The object in question is sub-triangular in shape with the pointed end forming the terminal of the strap end and the two sides extending from this terminal point slightly bowed. At the opposite end is a worn break. On the face of the object are three horizonal lines incised as decoration. On the reverse is a rivet in the middle of the object with a washer. On the reverse the break in the strap end is more apparent with the top sheet of the strap end projecting slightly above the sheet forming the rear of the fitting. This form is similar to no. 703 in Egan and Pritchard (2002: 147). The overall dimensions are as follows: 12.52mm in length, 10mm in width, 5.61mm in thickness and 1.56g in weight.

LIN-7694B6: COIN
A Medieval silver penny of Edward I (AD 1272-1307). Long Cross probably Class 10 (North 1038/1-2) dating to AD 1301-10. Minted in London. The coin is well worn and degraded around the edges. Overall dimensions: 14.9mm in diameter and 0.48g in weight.

LIN-7667A5: COIN
A Medieval silver cut halfpenny of Henry III (AD 1216-1272). Voided long cross Class 2-3 (North 985-988) dating to AD 1248-50. Minted by Nicole possibly at Canterbury. North (1994: 226). Overall dimensions: 8.57mm in length, 17.52mm in width and 0.61g in weight.

LIN-7619A3: MORTARIUM
A rimsherd of a wheel thrown ceramic mortarium dating to the Roman period (c. AD 100-300). The sherd is possibly made from Lincoln ware or another local whiteware used to produce mortaria, consistent with 2nd to 4th century AD dating. The rim type is that of a wall side, with flanged base, from a mortarium (grinding dish). The overall dimensions are as follows: 36.27mm in length, 46.12mm in width, 20.57mm in thickness and 30.93g in weight.

LIN-75DB0E: FIGURINE
An incomplete copper alloy horse's head of a possibly Roman date (c. AD 43-410). The head is relatively life-like with its eyes and mane rendered as moulded decoration and its ears roughly triangular in shape. The horse is depicted with the bridle across the neck, head and nose and with its mouth open. At the base of the head is a collar and from this projects a rounded knop suggesting the head was mechanised on the body of the figurine. Stylistically the horse is very similar to Roman examples recorded on the database, including: WAW-7B9163; CAM-88F808; YORYM-C2A231. However, no other examples have been found, to date, that appear to have been mechanised. The overall dimensions are as follows: 12.16mm in length, 12.94mm in width, 4.92mm in thickness and 2.38g in weight.

LIN-75073C: COIN

LIN-74CC06: TOKEN
An incomplete copper alloy token dating to the Post Medieval to Modern period (c. AD 1700-1900). Both the obverse and reverse depict three ostrich feather plumes passing through an open crown. There is no legible inscription apparent. The token is well worn and the bottom half is missing. Similar examples recorded on the database include: NLM-6A8D68 and SUSS-9821A5. The overall dimensions are as follows: 16.48mm in legnth, 21.48mm in width, 0.29mm in thickness and 0.3g in weight.

A fragment of a silvered copper alloy prick spur dating to the Roman period (c. AD 200-410). The object comprises a broken D-sectioned arm terminating in a flattened disc, which is perforated to accommodate a rivet by which it would be attached to its strap. Between the arm and the disc is a rectangular collar. There is evidence of silvering on the face and reverse of the disc. The rest of the object has a mid-green patina. Other examples recorded on the PAS database include: DENO-862F6A; SF-DA80E7; SWYOR-F48C17; and YORYM-9C8FA7 all with middle to late Roman dates thus helping to date this example. The overall dimensions are as follows: 24.76mm in length, 17.69mm in width, 4.37mm in thickness and 4.71g in weight.

LIN-739FCD: BUCKLE

LIN-F9DCC0: COIN
A Post Medieval silver shilling possibly of William III (AD 1694-1702) dating to AD 1695-1702. The object is a smooth and worn coin that has been bent into an 'S' shape to be used as a love token. Both faces are heavily worn. The bust right is very faintly visible on the obverse. Coins of William III were commonly converted into love tokens and this example is the correct size for a shilling of William III, although the obverse and reverse are too worn to accurately identify the coin. The overall dimensions are as follows: 20.19mm in length, 14.33mm in width, 3.05mm in thickness and 1.74g in weight.

LIN-F9B195: COIN
A Medieval silver penny of Edward I (AD 1272-1307). Long cross class 10cf (North 1040) dating to AD 1301-10. Minted in Canterbury. North (1991: 32). Overall dimensions: 19.13mm in diameter and 1.22g in weight.

LIN-F964E8: TOKEN
A complete lead token dating to the late Medieval to Post Medival period (c. AD 1400-1800). The token is circular in plan with the face bearing four raised dots in a square shape. The reverse is flat and undecorated. The object is cream and mid-grey in colour. As stated by Freeman (2017) lead tokens were used for a variety of activities, including gaming, tickets, tallies, weights etc. Most were produced locally therefore making them difficult to date precisely. Those with stylised designs, such as the example seen here, were most likely Post Medieval in date. The overall dimensions are as follows: 14.56mm in diameter, 3.24mm in thickness and 3.5g in weight.

The mount is in the shape of an acorn, which is broadly oval in shape and has knops at opposing ends. The reverse is slightly concave and has the remains of two integral studs. The decoration on the front of the mount consists of the cup and acorn, with a rounded knop at the apex of the acorn and a squared knop at the opposite end representing the twig. The surface of the mount shows signs of abrasion and it has a dark greenish brown patina. The overall dimensions are as follows: 38.84mm in length, 21.33mm in width, 5.74mm in thickness and 7.11g in weight.

LIN-F593D1: VESSEL
A lead alloy probable vessel repair or pot mend, dating from the Roman to the Post Medieval period (c. AD 43-1700). The object is roughly oval in plan and consists of one large side from which projects a slightly smaller sub-triangular piece of lead. This would have passed through the hole in the vessel to secure the mend. The object has a creamy white patina. As Oakden (2017) states, 'pot mends of this form are found in both Roman and Medieval periods, as a common way to repair broken vessels. Without any remains of the pot it is impossible to date it more precisely'. Therefore, a wide ranging timespan has been applied to this find to account for the lack of diagnostic evidence. The overall dimensions are as follows: 44.9mm in length, 36.03mm in width, 11.02mm in thickness and 78.21g in weight.

The strap end consists of two pieces of sheet copper alloy metal, welded together at the terminal and riveted at the opposite end. The strap end is roughly rectangular in plan. The terminal has been cut into a decorative end, consisting of a three petaled 'fleur de lis', with a small collar between the lis and the rest of the strap end. The space for the leather strap is still apparent. A small rivet is present at the top, which would have secured the strap end onto the original strap. The bottom plate of the strap end is cracked across the outer third. Similar examples recorded on the database include: DENO-704BE0; GLO-14C6A5 and LVPL-7FC292. The overall dimensions are as follows: 10.11mm in length, 45.21mm in width, 3.8mm in thickness and 3.11g in weight.

LIN-293FAA: BUCKLE
An incomplete copper alloy double-looped buckle dating to the Post Medieval period (c. AD 1550-1650). The buckle has two oval shaped loops with triangular knops at opposite outside edges, where the pin would rest. Each triangular projection has an incised line just below the tip and another almost in line with the line of the outer edge of the frame. The central bar is slightly recessed and shows wear where the pin would once have been. At either end of the bar are two further triangular knops with incised lines across the tips. Only one of these triangular projections has the second line further down towards the frame. These triangular projections could represent acorns (see Whitehead 2003: 66 no. 406). The face of the buckle is rounded and the reverse is flat. The pin no longer survives. Similar examples can be seen in Whitehead (2003: 65-6) nos 401 or 406. The overall dimensions are as follows: 43.16mm in length, 58.59mm in width, 3.07mm in thickness and 12.08g in weight.

LIN-28DD66: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
An incomplete copper alloy object, probably a finial or terminal, of Post Medieval date (c. AD 1500-1900). The object is in the form of an acorn cast in the round with a neat oval shaped body and top knop, and projecting hemispherical base representing the acorn cup. At the base of the cup is a stub of a circular sectioned shaft with iron staining, terminating in an old break. The entire object has a green patina. The overall dimensions are as follows: 22.7mm in length, 14.54mm in diameter and 15.58g in weight. Comparing this object to similar objects recorded on the PAS database this solid terminal or finial is likely to date to the Post Medieval period. It may have been utilised for furniture or as a decorative element on similar objects as is noted on parallels recorded, for example SWYOR-7485BB and SF-90BB94.

LIN-287352: BROOCH
A complete copper alloy headstud brooch, dating to the Roman period (c. AD 75-200). The head of the brooch has wings and an integral chain attachment loop projecting from the top. The wings are sub-tubular, accommodating the axis bar for the pin. At the front of the wings there are vertical ridges and grooves. The bow projects outwards to form an arch. At its apex is the circular 'headstud' motif, consisting of a raised circular field with four recesses for enamel within. There is a reserved circle in the centre with reserved lines dividing the space between into quarters. The bow then curves and tapers down to the foot, which is a collared and rounded knop with a flat base. Along the line of the bow below the headstud motif is a series of diamonds around which enamel would once have filled. On the reverse of the brooch the majority of the catch plate is intact, projecting outwards with part of the curl to catch the pin still apparent. The pin is also intact but has been bent out of shape. The overall dimensions are as follows: 39.52mm in length, 12.77mm in width, 13.65mm in thickness and 7.03g in weight. Compare a close parallel in Mackreth 2011, Chapter 4, Part 2, Headstud Type 5.a. Plate 73, no. 7357, which is a Headstud brooch, type 6.

LIN-27E3EF: BROOCH
An incomplete copper alloy Aucissa bow brooch dating to the Roman period (AD 43-70). The majority of the brooch survives, the pin and its cylindrical container are missing. The rolled-forward cylindrical wings and the rectangular head are complete. On the rectangular head is a bead row motif between raised line borders, below this is another raised line and below this is the inscription 'AVCISS[A]' in relief. From the head the bow is strongly arched in side profile, curving steeply downwards and then curving back to the foot, which terminates with a rounded and collared knop. At the front, the bow has a central vertical rib that is flanked on either side by a groove. At the base of the bow there is a pair of shallow horizontal ribs/grooves. On the reverse the catch plate is still in evidence and is curved back upon itself to accommodate the pin. The overall dimensions are as follows: 42.8mm in length, 13.48mm in width, 24.27mm in depth and 5.11g in weight. Discussion The Aucissa brooch was so-called after a number were discovered with the maker's name scratched on the head. The brooch was introduced and distributed with the Roman army in AD 43. It is often known as the 'soldier's brooch' owing to its predominant appearance on military sites during the first phase (up to AD 70). These brooches were also found on non-military sites however, and it is likely the type was copied by local manufacturers. (Basford 2012; Baker 2017).

LIN-2692CC: BROOCH
An incomplete copper alloy Roman Colchester derivative, double-lugged, Harlow brooch, c. AD 43-100). The remains of the brooh consist of the head with partial pin and part of the bow. The T-shaped wings have three longitudinal ridges at either end. The head is slightly crescent shaped in profile to allow for the coil of the spring of the pin to sit. The spring of the pin is attached to the head via two integral attachment loops at the reverse of the head. The bow extends from the centre of the head curving up and then down towards what would have been the foot. There is a central ridge running along the middle of the bow from the head. There are also two other ridges on either side of the bow at the point it joins the wings of the brooch. The brooch has been broken just below the apex of the bow's curve. The pin has also been broken just below the spring. Update 13.11.2018: the lower half of the brooch has been discovered in the same area as the head. The bow is oval in section and is decorated with a worn ridge which flattens to the surface of the bow as it progresses downwards. Three incised transverse grooves set in a vertical row decorate the bow on either side of the ridge just below the break. The catchplate is intact. The bow terminates with a small outward pointing foot. The overall dimensions are as follows: 56mm in length, 31.18mm in width, 14.18mm in thickness and 19.08g in weight.

LIN-957654: COIN WEIGHT
An incomplete copper alloy uniface circular coin weight for an Angel, of 15th to 17th century dating. The coin weight is sub circular in plan. The obverse depicts St Michael spearing a dragon, the flan has been struck off centre. The reverse is undecorated. The overall dimensions are as follows: 15mm in diameter and 4.31g in weght. Discussion from WMID-981832: The Angel was a denomination first issued in 1464 and continued in use until the end of James I's reign in 1625. Weights were usually made for the minimum legal weight of the coin rather than the average and also lose some weight through corrosion over the course of time. Considering this coin weight has suffered from a small degree of abrasion, it is probable that it was for an half or quarter Angel issued between 1604 and 1619 when a half Angel weighed 35.5 grains (Withers, 2011, 79).

LIN-931987: MOUNT
Treasure Number: 2017 T766 PAS Database number: LIN-931987 Period: Medieval Date of Discovery: April 2016 Circumstances of discovery: Metal detecting on cultivated land Description: An incomplete silver sexfoil mount in the form of a flower. The mount is domed, with a central engraved circle at the apex and each petal extending from the apex detailed by engraved lines. Each of the lobes of the petals has a small dip in the centre of the edge. The face of the mount has also been gilded. The reverse of the mount is concave in the centre and flattened out towards the edge. From the centre of the reverse projects an integral rivet which terminates in a worn break. Some of the gilding on the face is also apparent on the reverse. Dimensions: 17.77mm in diameter, 5.81mm in thickness and 2.69g in weight. Discussion: this style of mount can be dated to the Medieval period, specifically the 13th to 16th centuries AD. A number of similar examples of cinquefoil and sexfoil mounts in the form of flowers have been recorded on the PAS database. Some examples that more closely match the mount in discussion here include: a silver cinquefoil mount found in Haveringland in Norfolk (Anonymous 2011); a silver sexfoil strap fitting found in St. Mary Bourne in Hampshire (Williams 20212); and a copper alloy sexfoil mount found in Cold Hanworth in Lincolnshire (Brown-Warr 2017). Conclusion: In conclusion, this object constitutes a prima facie case of treasure by consisting of more than 10% precious metal content in that it is silver and gold, and is of an antiquity greater than 300 years.

Veronica had been moved to pity by the sight of Christ carrying his cross and gave him her veil to wipe his forehead. When he gave it back to her, the image of his face had been miraculously impressed on it. The veil was kept at St Peter's basilica where it was periodically displayed. By the 14th century it was displayed every Sunday and became Rome's chief attraction." References: Spencer, B., 1990.

LIN-BBCB0C: WEIGHT
A complete lead-alloy trade weight of Medieval to Post Medieval date (c. AD 1380 - 1600). The weight is shield shaped with a raised circular knop in the centre and an indented border running around the edge. The reverse is flat and undecorated. The metal has a mid-brown patina and is worn. The overall dimensions are as follows: 50mm long, 37mm wide, 11mm in thickness and weighs 118.51g. Oakden (2017) states that shield-shaped weights are a distinctive group of trade weights which are used from c.AD 1380 and continue into the 15th century. She argues that it can be difficult to date shield-shpaed weights owing to longevity and numerous designs, however, 'some belong to the period following the conversion of the trade pound under the averdepois system and as such it is likely that these weights represent a desire to standardize the trade weight system' (Ibid.). Similar examples recorded on the PAS database include: LVPL-8DA9DA; LANCUM-F4AE24 and DENO-7D3713.

PUBLIC-C934B8: CLOTH SEAL
An incomplete lead cloth seal dating to the Post Medieval period (c. AD 1550 - 1650). The seal is circular in plan with a jagged edge suggestive of where an attachment has broken off. The remains of a stud can be seen on the back of the seal. The face of the seal depicts a raised design of a stylised pinecone on an anchor or a tree, with the pinecone made up of a series of raised dots. On either side of the central design are five raised dots in a cluster to the left and seven raised dots in a custer to the right. The remains of a bead and line border can be seen on the outer edge below the anchor. Discussion: A similar pinecone motif can be seen on record number IOW-A34685 where Basford (2016) suggests the design represents the heraldic badge of the city of Augsburg, Germany. He discusses that the pinecone is associated with the cloth trade owing to its sometime interpretation as a teasel. Basford goes on to suggest that the history of the arms of Augsburg have also resembled the tree of life before 1260 and a bunch of grapes until the 15th centry when the grapes were replaced by a cone. The motif on this cloth seal could easily resemble all three. The overall dimensions are as follows: 17.59mm in diameter, 3.06mm in thickness and 5g im weight.
