Description: | The object is possibly the tip of a spear head. It is made from cast copper alloy, and is a sub-triangular shape in plan. The tip is blunt, the lower edge is broken, but not recently. In section the object is a pointed oval shape. The dimensions are 29.8mm long, 10.1mm wide and 3.1mm thick. The surface is heavily pitted, and has traces of a heavy dark brown patina. It is this patina and pitting which perhaps suggests its prehistoric date.
