Object type: TRANCHET AXEHEAD
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Wiltshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint tranchet axehead from the early Mesolithic period (c.9000 - 8000 BC). The flint is a dark brownish-grey and fairly opaque with elements of the cortex visible.

Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Nottinghamshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Description: The object found is a small piece of a gold metal bar or rod 14.5mm long with a rectangular cross section 5mm wide and 2mm deep. There is evidence that the bar fragment has been cut from a large bar at both ends. The fragment weighs 3.0g.

Nor is there any evidence for what the bar was original for or from. However, the shape of the object would not suggest this is an Iron Age gold ingot etc. when compared with other go…
