Description: | 13 pieces of unidentifiable copper alloy. One is curved in section and has a large moulding around one end; it has broken across a hole. It looks superficially like a fragment of socketed axe, but isn't. Another is much smaller, but is also curved in section and has a large moulding around one end. A third consists of two pieces of sheet folded up together. A fourth represents half of an object which was octagonally facetted externally and circular internally. A fifth is a piece of very thin sheet with a shiny white-metal coating on one face. The others are relatively featureless; they all have thick green patinas and look fairly old. Perhaps the result of metalworking; there is a cut and hammered coin (sf6841) and a casting sprue (sf6842) among this group too.
