Object type: SOCKETED AXEHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
the blade end of an Early/Middle Bronze Age axehead. It has an expanded crescentic blade with recurved ends. The blade has a marked dent, possibly resulting from use damage. It has been tooled to give a rounded blade edge . It is incomplete, with a narrow rectangular cross-section visible at the broken terminal. The form and lack of moulding seams on the sides suggests that it is likely to be a fragment of a flanged or winged axe rather than a palstave. There are slight indications of the beginnings of possible wings or flanges at the break. There is extensive corrosion pocking on the …

Record ID: SF-9606D6
Object type: SOCKETED AXEHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
a Late Bronze Age socketed axehead. It is the blade end only, with the end of the socket visible. Invasive corrosion has caused the loss of the edge of the crescentic blade and some incipient surface pocking (pale and medium green) on otherwise deep brown patinated surfaces. There is some recent grazing, perhaps due to the plough. There is no evidence of deliberate hammer-breakage although fragmentation is a feature of Late Bronze Age hoards. The axehead blade measures 29mm long by 52mm wide, and is 14mm thick, weighing 60g.

Record ID: SF-95E648
Object type: BLADE
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
A copper-alloy blade fragment, probably dating to the Late Bronze Age. It is possibly from a sword but there is no central thickening or mid-rib, and it is very thin. All the surfaces are lost to pale/mid green invasive corrosion, with additional recent surface grazes, probably from the plough. The side view shows some bending near the break, possibly supporting the deliberate fragmentation as found on sword fragments from Late Bronze Age 'founders' hoards. It is 31mm in length, 34mm wide and 4mm thick, weighing 20g.

Record ID: SF-95A437
Object type: SPEARHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
the tip of a Middle Bronze Age spearhead. It is narrow with a pronounced mid-rib, and 14mm of the socket survives into the head. The edges are worn due to invasive corrosion with surfaces also affected, especially on one face.The survivng surfaces are patinated to a deep brown, but elsewhere the spearhead is a pale-medium green. The mid-rib has a relatively angular lozenge-shaped cross-section which suggests a Middle Bronze Age date. It measures 75mm in length, 16mm in width, and is 8mm in thickness, weighing 13g.
It is probably from a side or basal looped spear head.

Object type: FLAT AXEHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A bronze flat axe of the late Early Bronze Age. It is complete and is a low-flanged axe of Arreton type. There is severe surface pocking due to invasive corrosion, especially on one face and side. Small amounts of deep brown patinated original surface survive, but the axe is mostly a pale to medium green. There is no trace of a central bevel or stop ridge, although a bevel divides the blade end from the axe body. The butt end is gently convex. A few recent plough grazes are present on the surface. The axe is 86mm in length, 46mm at the blade, and is 9mm thick. It weighs 98g.
