Copper alloy wire. Two strands of thick [diameter 2.2mm] drawn wire, arranged to lie parallel to each other, with one strand tightly twisted around the other in four tight loops, and then hammered flat on one side. The protruding ends are flattened at one end, probably deliberately rather than as the result of snipping.

A fragment of twisted gold wire of uncertain date and function, most likely part of an earring or other item of jewellery. The wire originally had a square cross section and has been twisted along most of its length and bent into an S-shape. There is a short section of around 10mm on the outside of the larger bend which appears not to have been twisted; this may be an original feature relating to the function of the object, perhaps suggestive of a suspension loop.

Copper alloy wire. Two strands of drawn copper alloy wire of diameter 2mm; on strand being wrapped tightly around the other, cut at one or both ends. This may simply be a sport involving two pieces of scrap, though the configuration might also be apt to a simple electrical function. The diameter of the wire appears to respect the metric system, it may therefore be of recent date. Suggested date: Modern, 1900-1950 Length: 41.6mm, Diameter (as found): 6.9mm, Weight: 6.45gms

Broad period: ROMAN
County: Bedford
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper alloy fragment of a coiled wire of possible Roman date (AD 320 - 450). The object is composed of one strand tightly coiled around itself looped back as a central strand. The individual strand has a circular cross section of 1.34 mm diameter. The fragment has two links present, connected by two (non-detachable) loops of copper-alloy wire. One loop is small and circular, the other larger, elongated and drop-shaped. The breaks at the end of each link are old and worn. There are some similarities to the wire in Crummy, 39, 1610. Length: 45.93 mm. Thickness: 5.05 mm. Weight 2.4 g

Lead possible cable or wire fragment. A short tube comprising an outer skin of lead sheet of thickness 1.5mm with a loosely butted seam, but incorporating two tiny rounded conduits of diameter 2mm within. This might be apt to serve as an insulating jacket around two strands of an electric cable of conductive material. The metal retains a grey tint, though its shiny surface may arise from treatment by the finder. Suggested date: Modern, 1900-1950 Length: 20.6mm, Diameter: 10.3mm, Weight: 8.59gms

Copper alloy wire. A length of drawn wire with angled sheared ends. The finder kindly suggests this to be a post-medieval clasp, citing Read 2008 page 142 nos 557-558, though this reporter would rather see it as, at best, an improvised version rather than one of these more neatly 'knotted' forms.
