Broad period: ROMAN
County: West Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete cast copper-alloy late Iron Age to early Roman brooch, probably of strip bow type, c. 1st century AD. The wings, neck and part of the bow are complete.

The brooch has a nearly flat profile below the slight angle at its head…

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete post-Medieval sub-annular buckle dating to c.1660-1720. The buckle is double-looped and has oblique bifid knops on each end of the frame. On the top and bottom of the frame there are six moulded transverse lines and grooves. On both ends of the buckle there are two grooves on the edges and one single lined groove above and in the centre of the two side grooves.

Record ID: PUBLIC-6DAD78
Object type: INGOT
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Leicestershire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A lead ingot, of probable Roman date. It is roughly in the form of a trapezium in plan, with maximum dimensions of 134 by 103mm, and the thickness varies from to 12 to 35mm. One face is relatively smooth, but the other is much rougher and is quite pitted. It weighs 2.4 kg, and all surfaces are thickly covered in cream/white patina.
This could date from any period from Roman to post Medieval, but it was found near to a known Roman site, and the degree of patination would suggest an early date, so the likelihood is that it is Roman.

Flint borer, sub-rectangular in plan, bi-convex in profile and section. On the dorsal face, there is a point on the upper left margin on the distal edge. To the left of this point there is retouch and to the right (i.e. along the distal end) there is a prepared edge, so creating a working point. There is also a sharp point midway down the right margin but this may be acceidental. There is a sharp edge along part of the proximal end, possibly for use as a blade. On the ventral face, there is fine retouch on the upper right marginbelow the working point. The flint is grey with white mot…
