Description: | A fragment of an iron spear head [Swanton's Type H3] dating to the early Early medieval period. The fragment is lozengiform in section and comprises a portion of the blade nearest to the socket. The spearhead expands and then tapers to a point, which is missing. It measures 132mm in length, a maximum of 49mm in width and has a thickness of 7mm. It is similar to examples known from Graves 28 and 36, Edix Hill, Barrington.
