Description: | An Anglo-Saxon socketed iron spearhead. This object is suffering from quite severe iron corrosion and is very fragile. The item is 384 mm long and weighs 302 g. It is 47 mm wide at its widest point, near the socket, decreasing to 13 mm towards the tip. The tip has, however, been broken off and is missing. The spearhead's socket is 92 mm long and is 23.5 mm in diameter. Traces of the wooden spear shaft's fibres remain within the socket.
