Description: | An incomplete, unidentified, cast iron artifact of unknown date, but probably modern. It consists of a pyramidal head and and part of an integral, flat shaft of rectangular section. It is 51.9mm long, 11mm wide and 9.4mm thick. It weighs 19.9gm. It has been compared to arrowheads and ballista bolts, but lacks the socket and circular sectioned neck found on these items. It is therefore more likely to be a modern domestic object, though a Roman date cannot be ruled out given the presence of a Roman fort in the area.
