Description: | An incomplete probable spoon handle. The bowl and the terminal of the handle are now missing due to old breaks and the surviving fragment is bent in half. It is rectangular in shape and flares towards both of its incomplete ends, measuring 8.7mm in width at its widest point and 6.5mm in width across its narrower centre. If unbent it would measure 87.5mm in surviving length. At one incomplete end there is the remains of a flaring triangular part which is probably the start of the bowl. Traces of a white metal coating can be seen on both faces. This spoon handle is difficult to date as it is missing its bowl. It could possibly be Roman in date, due to the white metal coating but it could also be later in date.
