Object type: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: County of Herefordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete cast lead alloy artefact, possibly a post medieval shy-cock or a fragment from a piece of decorative horse harness. The artefact has become badly twisted and folded in the plough soil and the original form is difficult to describe. In cross section it is sub-rectangular (slightly D shaped) with bevelled edges. The reverse face is plain and undecorated - there is no evidence of attachment lugs of fixing mounts. The cast decoration on the front face consists of a linear band with a cross potent within; the external edge is formed from a serrated band of raised square shap…

Object type: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: County of Herefordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Lead alloy terminal consisting of three rounded rings in a row, increasing in diameter from a rounded point. Between the first two rings is a flat band. On the base is the scar of a shaft. In profile the artifact is slightly oval.
Length 26.0mm, Width 12.8mm, Weight 13.4g
Peter Reavill FLO:
The top of this artefact is possibly an acorn knop and the scar at teh base is wide enough to match a stem of a post medieval lead alloy (pewter) spoon. The artefact is erroded and the surface patina unsound: this identification is very tentative.

A lead alloy weight or possible spindle whorl of Roman to Post Medieval date (AD1 - 1650). In plan the object is semi-circular. The object has a central semi-circular perforation which measures 4.10mm in width. It is possible the object was once circular and only half of the object is now remaining. The upper surface is decorated with a series of linear incisions. The reverse surface of the object is un-decorated. The object has a cream coloured patina across all surfaces. Spindle whorls and weights have been used for a long period of time and are therefore very difficult to date prec…

Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: County of Herefordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
