Description: | A bronze fragment from the mouth of a cast socket probably from a socketed axehead. The external casting seam is somewhat askew, possibly as a result of twisting due to deliberate breakage. All breaks appear to be ancient and there is a recent plough? mark on the inner face. The fragment has a dark brown/green patina. It was almost certainly from a Late Bronze Age 'founders' hoard.
