The concave sides have a slight lip to them which disappears once they meet the straight edge. The hollow socket tapers as it goes towards the cutting edge, being solid approximately 17mm before the edge. The cutting edge is very worn and blunt. No decoration is visible. The surface displays localised evidence of active bronze disease, mixed between light brownish deposits of an uncert…

County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Possible blade fragment from a Bronze Age flat axe. The blade has a very worn abraded crescentric cutting edge. The sides are slightly concave. The surfaces of the blade have a brown-red patina. The blade is consistently 1mm thick at all points over the surface, which would make it less likely to be from an axe since one would expect it to thicken toward the middle.

Bronze age copper alloy axe, 40mm long 30-35mm wide and 4-12mm thick. The object represents the tip of the axe, which widens from 30mm to 35mm at the blade. It weighs 65 grams and has a brownish/green patina. It tapers in thickness from 17mm at the broken end to 3mm at the tip. This is probably part of a mid bronze age straight sided, intrusive? axe.

County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Copper alloy fragment, 34mm long, 8mm wide and 4mm thick. The object has a bright green patina and weighs 5.50 grams. The object is rectangular in form and triangular in section. The narrow edge is slightly rounded and 1mm thick. The widest edge, 4mm thick, has broken and clearly shows two layers of metal with a small void in between(One side has a small triangular protrusion overlapping the break). This would suggest a blade tip perhaps off a small axe or a chisel?

Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete cast copper-alloy axe of Bronze Age date. Only the corner of the blade end survives intact, the remainder now missing due to old breaks. It is rectangular in form, triangular section with one side and part of the sharpened blade surviving. The fragment has a dark green patina and measures 15.90mm in width, 9.86mm in length, 5.09mm in thickness and 2.33g in weight. This is a fragment from the blade of a Bronze Age axe, however due to the preservation of the object it is uncertain whether it belongs to a flat axe, a palstave or socketed axe. It may therefore date to any po…
