Object type: RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Ring (from harness?) Cast copper alloy circular ring, with flat upper and lower faces, and facetted edges, giving it an almost hexagonal cross section. This object could have been used as a harness fitting, but it is impossible to be sure of its function. Parallels: Rings like this could be put to many uses, and are found on sites of all periods, so it is impossible to be certain of an Iron Age date for this find. However, a similar, although slightly larger, ring was also reported as part of the related 1843 material (M.95) Measurements: Thickness: 3.4mm; diameter: 27.2mm; weight: 5.9g

Object type: MOUNT
Broad period: ROMAN
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Strap fitting/ Mount Fragment of an enamelled cast copper alloy mount. This object appears to have been rectangular in plan when complete, although it may have formed part of a larger mount or fitting. The long edges of the rectangular plate have a lip projecting downwards. The object is broken along both of the shorter sides. The upper surface is decorated with inlaid enamel. This is laid out in a symmetrical herringbone pattern, on either side of a central dividing line. Traces of enamel remain. The mount has a rectangular-sectioned pin projecting on the reverse, in a perpendicular…

Object type: FURNITURE FITTING
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Published
Cast copper alloy fragment of a Post Medieval drawer handle. It has a strip of copper alloy folded over through the top loop, presumably to attach the fitting to the drawer. The main body has a rectangular attachment loop with protruding corners and a raised lower line. It then narrows to a neck, before widening into what would have been a sub-rectangular body with leaf/floriate design on the front. This has broken only a short way down.

Object type: SEAL MATRIX
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast copper alloy Post Medieval fob seal, mostly likely 19th century in date. It is made completely of copper alloy, with the seal section being just a flat oval disc of copper alloy (measuring 17.49mm by 14.84mm). The symbol on the seal is a masonic symbol, The Square, Compasses and Letter 'G'. This is one of the most common symbols of the Freemasons. There are varying theories as to what it represents. The arms of the seal form a robust openwork design with floriate decoration, terminating in a circular attachment loop, set perpendicular to the seal.

Object type: BELL
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast copper alloy clapper bell, Post Medieval in date. It appears to have been tinned on the surface as it has a silvery looking patina. The bell is complete but is missing the clapper. It has an integral copper alloy attachment loop at the top, this has broken so the loop is open. The bell flares at the base, and on the inside is written the alphabet, it appears to have been cast into the design. On the outer edge it is worn but there appears to have been a pattern of diagonal lines. This is an unusual bell design, as the alphabet would not have been visible so it is unclear quit…

Strap fitting/ Mount Cast copper alloy harness fitting, taking the form of a ring with small rectangular strap bar on the reverse. The strap bar is oval in cross-section, but the ring itself has a D-shaped section, curved on the front and flat on the reverse. At least one circular hole has been drilled into the front of the ring, probably intended to hold enamel, as seen on many other fittings from this site. Parallels: The form of this object is most similar to M.14 from the related 1843 hoard, although that example had lipped decoration, whereas this find is plain. Measurements: Th…

Strap fitting/ Mount Cast copper alloy strap fitting. This fitting takes the form of an open ring with an openwork triple-circle trefoil filling, flat in cross-section. In the centre of each of the three central circles is a circular indentation, with central pin remaining in two cases, and missing in the third. These may have been settings for studs. A rectangular strap bar is attached to the reverse of the ring, across the centre of the circular fitting. The object appears to have been slightly mis-cast, or perhaps another object has been partially melted onto this one. In some are…

Object type: BUTTON AND LOOP FASTENER
Broad period: ROMAN
County: North Yorkshire

Button and loop fastener or strap terminal Cast copper alloy button and loop fastener or strap terminal. This fitting has a flat semi-circular 'button', with triangular central hole. This gives the impression of a rectangular panel along the base, with two angled leaf-shaped mouldings above it, forming the curve of the semi-circle. The loop (cast in one piece with the 'button') projects backwards from the rear of the semicircular plate, the shank starting from a point just above the triangular void. The loop is at an angle of around 30° to the 'button', in the same plane. The bot…

Terret ring fragment Fragment of a mis-cast copper alloy terret ring. A short section of the circular-sectioned terret ring remains, ornamented with a pair of moulded lips, which are mis-cast. There is iron corrosion around one end of the fragment. Parallels: The form of the lips is very similar to many of the terrets in the related 1843 hoard, but the fragment is too distorted to find a secure parallel. Measurements: Length: 42.6mm; width of lipped moulding: 26.5mm; diameter of ring: 9.46mm; weight: 50g

Object type: CART FITTING

Cart fitting Large copper alloy pin with tapering conical shaft and balustered head, with an incised line around the circumference of the pin at the base of the head. Possibly the terminal of a copper alloy and iron linch pin, although the long tapering copper alloy pin would be unusual. One side of the pin is heavily encrusted with iron corrosion, supporting the suggestion that this formed part of a larger object which included iron components. Parallels: This type of pin is most closely paralleled by Palk's (1992) Type IIa (Iron linch pins with baluster-headed copper alloy …

Terret ring fragment Fragment of a cast copper alloy terret ring, consisting predominantly of a rectangular-sectioned strap bar with strap bar guard, delimited on either side by disc-shaped terminals.
