A complete Late Bronze Age socketed axe. The surface of the axe is in very fine condition with only a little iron staining and a small amount of green corrosion on the blade edge. The width of the blade is 46.06mm. The exterior width of the socket is 38.75mm. Internally the socket measures 28.63mm by 27.85mm.
The axe was recovered from woodland in a wet context. The reported depth at which the axe was found is c0.60m. It is possible that the deposition of the axe was intentional.

Middle to Late Bronze Age bronze dirk of Group IV type, damaged weapon with reworked butt (Burgess & Gerloff, 1981, p 99) and probably of later Penard or Wilberton metalworking industries, corresponding to Needham’s (1996) Periods 5-6, possibly dated to c.1200-900BC The dirk has a damaged butt and is eroded (with a s...
The blade fragment is comparatively substantial, possibly suggesting that the dirk may have been reworked from the tip of a sword with a leaf-shaped blade, or possibly from a heavy rapier. Incised decoration on blades tends occur on swords of the Penard Industry (e.g. Type Clewer and Type Limehouse) and on Group I dirk...

A corroded cast copper-alloy awl or tracer of possible Bronze Age date. The artefact has a thicker body with circular cross-section that tapers to a point. The 'tang' is narrower and sub-rectangular in cross-section. Such construction is typical of prehistoric awls which are thought to date from the late Bronze Age.
This record was made at a rally and may thus fall below our usual standards of recording.
