Cast copper alloy mount in the shape of a boar's head. Roman in date, it is hollow-cast. There are traces of 2 legs at the front which have now broken off.

Copper alloy early post-medieval dress hook imitation made from one piece of sheet metal. Consists of 3 semi-spherical hollow domes connected by a central flat area. In the central piece is a circular perforation. Each dome is decorated with 3 sets of ring and dot decoration. The hole probably had a backplate with bar and hook rivetted on which has now broken off. It is also possible that this was an unfinished frontplate. A similar example made from lead, but not as complete can be seen at SOMDOR-01C437.

Copper alloy mount of Roman date in the shape of a lion. The mount is incomplete, having broken just before the hind legs. It is made of solid copper alloy and has been cast. The face is facing forwards and shows the lion with his mouth open. The eyes, nose and details of the mane have been picked out. Behind the mane the mount narrows and is smooth on all surfaces. It widens again where it reaches the hind legs. The break here is uneven and appears old. This would have been a mount on some piece of furniture and is most likely to be Roman.
