Button and loop fastener or strap terminal Cast copper alloy button and loop fastener or strap terminal. This fitting has a flat trefoil 'button', formed from three adjoining circles. The loop (cast in one piece with the 'button') projects backwards from the rear of the head, the shank starting from the centre of the trefoil. The shank emerges at 90° to the 'button', bending as it nears the loop, which is at an angle of around 30° to the 'button', in the same plane. The loop and shank are plain, but the front of the 'button' is decorated. Each of the circles which forms the …

Terret ring fragment Fragment of a very robust copper alloy terret ring. It is broken at both ends, leaving only a small section of the full ring. The ring is circular in cross section, and is decorated with a double lip moulding. There is a drilled circular hollow on the interior face of each lip, which may originally have been filled with enamel. There is a raised moulded line around the ring where it meets the lips on either side. Parallels: The form of the lips is paralleled in many terrets from the related 1843 hoard. In size the piece is closest to M 65-69, which al…

Terret ring fragment Fragment of a copper alloy terret ring. It is broken at both ends, leaving less than a quarter of the full ring. The ring is circular in cross section, and is decorated near one end with a double lip moulding. There is iron corrosion all along the fragment, which obscures some of the surface detail, but it is possible that this piece has been mis-cast. Parallels: The form of the lips is very similar to many of the terrets in the related 1843 hoard, being most similar to M.54, Spratling's (2011) style group III. Measurements: Length: 53.2mm; diameter of ring: 7.2m…

Harness fitting fragment (?bridle bit) Small fragment of a cast copper alloy harness fitting with lipped decoration. When complete, it appears that this would have consisted of an outer ring, enclosing a smaller decorative ring. The rings are flat on the reverse, giving a D-shaped cross-section. Both rings are now broken, the remaining fragment consisting of a pair of moulded lips, which lie across the joining section of the two rings. The lips are drilled on the inside, possibly to hold enamel. There is quite a lot of surface corrosion, and on the reverse of the object are the remai…

Button and loop fastener or strap terminal Fragment of a cast copper-alloy button and loop fastener or strap terminal.

Parallels: This fragment resembles the loops from many other fittings from both the related 1843 hoard and the 2011 assemblage. It is not possible to identify the form of the original object from this fragment, but it is highly likely that it formed part of a button and loop fastener (cf Wild 1970) or strap terminal (cf MacGregor 1962). …

Cast copper alloy circular ring. The ring is circular in cross-section, although wider on one side than on the other, perhaps due to wear. This object is perhaps too small to have been used as a harness fitting, and 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.

Both also contained low levels of gold and silver. In the case of the smaller droplet, the gold content was higher, at around 10%.

This object comprises only a small fragment of the 'button' section, which would have been an open circle or oval. The flat front face is decorated with circular indentations, which may have been enamelled. Parallels: This fastener does not fit into Wild's (1970) typology. It is closely paralleled by a piece from the related 1843 hoard (M. 33, Spratling's (2011) style group V), and find no. 12 from the 2011 assemblage. Measurements: Length: 17.5mm; width: 7.6mm; thic…

Button and loop fastener or strap terminal Possibly a fragment of a mis-cast copper alloy button and loop fastener or strap terminal. This object consists of a single flat leaf-shaped panel, with a central raised circular moulding, concave in the centre, with central pip, possibly a setting for a stud. At one end, the remains of what may have been a second leaf-shaped panel remain, but this part of the object is broken and mis-cast. Parallels: This object is very similar to a fragmentary example of the 'button' from find no. 10, and may perhaps have been part of a pair to this…

Fragment of a copper alloy Iron Age bracelet. It is broken at both ends, presumably the rest of the bracelet would have been the same design. The section remaining is made up of four 'beads' connected by narrower sections. The bracelet is hollow in the centre and has been cast in one. Each bead is slightly different in size. The beads have decoration on the outer surfaces in the form of lines, raised, running the circumference of them. The surface is uneven due to corrosion and is a dark green colour.

It has been silvered/tinned on the outer face, most of which remains. It is also decorated with parallel grooved lines which follow the shape of the handle. The edges are slightly uneven and worn with green patches showing through. The reverse has no decoration but some wear and…

Copper alloy La Tene III type bow brooch dating to 1st century BC- 1st century AD. A one-piece early bow brooch. It is mostly complete although the pin has broken just before the end and the catchplate is missing its hooked end. There are three turns in the spring, the wire looping below the spring to form the last loop. The bow is flat in profile, extending out from the head at 90 degrees then going straight down to the catchplate. It narrows towards a point at the foot then the thin, rectangular catchplate extends out at 90 degrees behind the bow.
