Late Bronze Age bronze end-winged axe, belonging to the Carp's Tongue complex of Ewart Park metalworking, corresponding to Needham's (1996) Period 7 and dated to c. 950-750BC.
The winged axe is incomplete, missing both wings on the unlooped side (the axe has an overall length of 1360.9mm and a weight of 282.8g). The butt protrudes beyond the return of the wings (by 14mm) and expands to the end (with a width of 22.4mm and a thickness of 6.1mm). The end of the butt has two 'horns' each side of a central rectangular break, which would have been attached to the casting jet before removal. The sides of the axe are straight and converge slightly towards the start of the blade (where the axe has a maximum body width behind the loop of 27mm and a minimum width at the stop of 21.8mm). The loop is positioned towards the rear of the wings (and has a length of 20.7mm, a height of 8.7mm, giving the axe an overall width of 34.6mm, a thickness of 6mm and an aperture of 7.4mm x 5.3mm). The remains of the casting seams are discernible along both sides. The wings diverge sharply to their apices before returning more gradually to the blade. The wings are only partially turned-over and were unlikely to have been closed (the wings have a maximum height of 36.4mm, a length of 48.7mm and a thickness of 4.7mm). Both the wings on the unlooped side have broken in antiquity (with a surviving height of 23mm) a stress fracture near the blade appears to suggest the wing was struck from the top (as hafted). The stop is rounded and gradually slopes from the septum (where the axe has a maximum body thickness of 18.0mm). The blade is slender and the sides diverge to form a rounded blade edge (with a width of 40.3mm). The blade faces are slightly convex with no discernible blade facet. The original surface of the axe has been lost and has a current pitted bronze surface. The septum has small patches of black patina surviving.
End-winged axes are associated with the Carp's Tongue complex with a distribution centred around northern France and southern Britain. Burgess's (1968) distribution of the axe type is confined to south-eastern England except for one western outlier in St. Kenidjack, Cornwall. Swansea Museum has a (probable) replica end-winged axe recovered from Sketty, Swansea. A Ewart Park hoard recovered in 2005 from Llancarfan, Vale of Glamorgan contained one end-winged axe (Gwilt, 2008, p 221, no. 1223) . This discovery appears to represent the third find of this axe type in Wales and the fourth in western Britain and may suggest a possible local clustering around Swansea, possibly indicating a network of exchange and circulation of metalwork around coastal South Wales.

Cast lead-alloy whistle in the shape of a pipe bowl, probably late 19th century in date. The pipe bowl is similar to clay pipe examples and is decorated with moulded decoration consisting of joined semicircles and small raised knops. The base of the bowl ends in a pointed spike. Casting flashes are prominent on both sides. Iron corrosion is evident on the rim, suggesting an iron collar. The beginning of the stem is intact, and it is unclear if the stem was also made of a lead alloy, ceramic or other material.
See NARC-6E7E81 for a similar example. Further information on this artefact type can be found in the Society for Clay Pipe Research Newsletter 76, page 43 'Metal Pipes and Toy Whistles' (2009).

Post medieval lead-tin alloy (pewter) whistle of 18th century date
The whistle is incomplete, missing the mouth-piece section (with a surviving length of 26.9mm and a weight of 4.0g). The fragment comprises two joined parts, joined at an expanded sleeve (with a diameter of 13.8mm). The casting seams are clearly discernible on both sections. The D-shaped sound-hole survives and is enhanced with cast decoration comprising a pellet border and floral scrolls. At the terminal is a suspension loop at the end of a slender neck (10.0mm long and 2.4mm minimum diameter). The surface has a dark-grey patina.

Post medieval lead-tin alloy (pewter) whistle of 18th century date
The whistle is near-complete, with some peripheral damage to the mouth-piece (with a length of 39.5mm and a weight of 7.0g). The whistle comprises three parts, with the curved plate soldered to underside of the mouth-piece and end section joined at an expanded sleeve (with a diameter of 14.2mm). The casting seams are clearly discernible on both sections and there is no cast decoration. There is a D-shaped sound-hole (8.4mm wide and 4.0mm long). At the terminal is a suspension loop (5.0mm diameter and 2.7mm internal diameter) at the end of a slender neck (9.3mm long and 2.6mm minimum diameter). The surface has a dark-grey patina and has a linear dent on the underside.

Copper alloy zoomorphic figurine, probably a weight in the form of a horse, now damaged and incomplete, represented by the front of the animal (with a surviving length of 32.5mm, a maximum surviving height of 22.1mm and a weight of 20.4g). The legs of the horse survive as short stubs and are projecting forward, suggesting the horse may have been depicted running. The figurine has a maximum width across the shoulders of 10.0mm. The mane is evident along the neck of the horse and the recessed eyes are discernible but all other surface detail has been lost.
The find can be closely paralleled with a more complete bronze horse figurine from Ludgvan in Cornwall (CORN-A6D554), interpreted as a probable Scandinavian weight of 14th century date. They appear to be the first found outside Scandinavia.

Lead pan weight of uncertain date The weight is complete (with a length of 18.5mm). Both faces are circular (with a diameter of 14-15mm). The sides are concave, producing a minimum diameter of 12.2mm). One of the faces has the suggestion of an incised design, possibly a star within a circular border. The weight weighs 25.0g, which is equivalent to 0.885oz. The weight is not diagnostic and is difficult to date the weight of 25.0g is broadly consistent with a 1oz weight of Medieval and post medieval systems.

Conventionally, they are identified as spindle whorls and certainly they would have performed such a function (e.g. Egan 1998, 259-261, nos.803-804, fig.203); however, they have also been variously identified as unofficial weights used by traders or weights for other purposes such as weighing down rabbiting, bird or fishing nets or even wall hangings (Margeson 1993, 139; Bailey 1995, 29).

Excavated examples from Wales range in date from the medieval period until the nineteenth century, although the possibility of an earlier date can not be dismissed.8Unitary AuthorityPossiblyNMGW44426Restricted Accessx412182634985912.6Newport110942011-02-24T12:19:17ZWalesUndecorated, perforated, conical lead, or lead alloy, weight.
