At the apex is an openwork cross and elsewhere the mount is decorated with incised chevrons, some of which are cut deeply into the mount. The underside of the mount is flat and the interior remains as cast. Remnant traces of gilding survive in the incised decora…

A distal fragment of a knapped and pressure flaked knife likely dating to the Early Bronze age. The flake is made from a distal portion of a cortical flake of semi translucent unpatinated grey flint. The dorsal surface bears patches of cortex and invasive pressure flaking removal scars. The ventral surface blade edges have also been retouched to form the point and even, carefully shaped sides. The knife has a transverse diagonal break at the proximal end. The invasive pressure flaked retouch suggests an early bronze-age date. The cross section of the blade is plano-convex, suggesting …

Ten copper halfpence of which seven certainly of William III (1694-1701) and the others probably the same reign. Two are dated 1698 and 1699; remaining dates illegible.
All of these coins show a good deal of circulation wear and it is likely that the group was lost or deposited during the middle or later years of the eighteenth century.
