Black glass metalworking debris. A trapezoid block of glossy opaque black bubbled glass slag, possibly formed by knapping to produce four planar sides. The size of the object compares with that of a flint cobble (NLM-7BF091) reported along with it. The material probably originates in a high-temperature industrial process but may represent the recycling of such materials. The most likely point of origin would be the iron and steel industries around Scunthorpe, which would generate such wastes apt to reuse as building materials or hardcore. Suggested date: Post-Medieval to Modern, 1850-1…
