Description: | Fragment of copper alloy double edged blade, probably Bronze Age. This fragment is subrectangular in plan with a lentoid section. Both broken ends are straight, as if the blade has been deliberately broken, possibly for its inclusion in a scrap hoard. The object is slightly bent, supporting this theory. The narrowness of the fragment suggests it has come from the pointed end of a weapon, possibly a spearhead. The fragment is abraded. Where the original surface survives, it has a dark green patina, but is otherwise mid green in colour. It has a surviving length of 34.02mm, is 16.98mm wide, 3.76mm thick and weighs 10.49g.
