Poor quality photographs of both surfaces of this axe, and a profile view can be found on the original paper record held at Kent County Council. Due to the quality of these images they have not been attached to this database entry.

Flat axes are usually found as single finds and separate from settlement and burials of this time. As a consequence, it proves very difficult to date them because of the lack of associations with other material culture and human activity. At present, less than 100 flat axes have been recorded from Wales, spanning a tim...

This is recorded in Davis' (2012, No.645) corpus as a Group 6 (Developed side-looped: Unclassified) spearhead. Ove r483 Group 6 spearheads are now known from Britain and these can be broadly dated to the Acton Park and Taunton metalworking phases (c.1600-1275 BC) (Davis 2012, 66f.)

The suggestion of low flanges, as well as the combination of a sunken shield pattern with a raised midrib, means this is probably a Gr.III, Type Wantage palstave (Schmidt and Burgess 1981, 133-5). This type of palstave held its currency in the Taunton phase (c.1400-1275 BC), though may have also extended into the Penar...
