Fragment of a Middle to Late Bronze Age spear. Only part of the blade located near to the terminal (tip-end) survives. It is lozenge in section and has a pronounced rib running down the centre on both sides. The entire perimeter is damaged. Much of the blade is pitted with bright green patches of corrosion, however, the original surface is smooth and has a mid-brown patina. One of the breaks is irregular and does not appear to have been done intentionally; the other, however, is more regula, straight, and might be the result of having been cut. 38mm x 21mm x 4mm. 12.58g.

A fragment of a copper alloy spear probably dating to the Middle or Late Bronze Age (c. 1500-800 BC). The fragment consists of the tip of the spear blade, which is triangular in plan. The tip is slender with a pronounced middle rib which tapers to the edges in 'wings', creating a rounded lozenge-shaped cross section. The fragment terminates in an irregular old break. The spear tip measures 34.2mm long, 13.2mm wide, 4.4mm thick and weighs 4.62 grams. As only the tip of the spear remains, it is difficult to date this object more precisely than the Middle to Late Bronze Age period,…

A complete copper alloy spearhead of unknown date; possibly Early Bronze Age through to the modern period. The object has a triangular blade with a long pointed tang. The spearhead has a rounded point at the tip of the blade. A narrowed central mid-rib transverses the blade, the rib starts at the tip and extends to the splayed upper section of the integral tang. On one face the central rib is intact and on the other face this has been worn. At the base of the blade either side of the rib are stepped barbs. One has been damaged at the outer corner. The break is well patinated. Projecti…
