Description: | Bronze Age spearhead fragment of socket-looped type and of Middle Bronze Age date, and likely to belong to the Acton Park or Cemmaes metalworking traditions (c. 1500-1100BC). The spearhead is broken at both ends and would have been short with a leaf-shaped blade. The circular socket becomes lozenge-shaped as it defines the central rib of the blade. The remnants of both loops are present at the base of the fragment and appear slight with a circular section.
