The phallus is straight and two-dimensional, with a flat back. It is crudely modelled with a vertically incised line upwards from the tip of the phallus and, above this, a horizontal line. A small suspension loop is attached to the base of the testicles. Length: 26.0 mm; max. width: 15.9 mm; min. width: 6.20 mm; depth: 5.1 mm; Weight: 7.72g
The peltate-shaped mount is more intact than the second, with most of the semi-circular copper alloy remaining, though there is some damage to the edges. A hole, presumably for attachment, sits in the centre of the body, slightly offset below the 'arm'. The top of the 'arm' is broken. The mount is flat on one side, with a projection on the edge, perhaps to aid attachment. Max length: 40.9mm; max height: 26.0 mm; depth: 1.6 mm; Width of projection: 6.0mm; Length of projection: 11.0mm; Weight: 4.82g
The smaller semi-circular mount has a large section missing on the left. The projecting 'arm' is also broken and it has a hole, possibly for attachment, below it. There appears to have been another attempt at piercing the object with a soil-filled indent offset to the right. There is a surviving projection on the long edge. Max length: 36.5mm; Max height: 23.5 mm; Depth: 1.6 mm; Width of projection: 5.3 mm; Length of projection: 8.3mm; Weight: 3.33g
This is a small fragment, likely part of the projection from the mounts. Length: 14.5mm, Fragment Weight: 0.51g
It has a large dome-shaped, hollow head with a triangular integral toggle set at 90 degrees. Button diameter: 19.5mm; Max height: 22.5mm; Loop length: 21.5mm; Overall length: 31.5 mm; Weight: 17.11g
A copper alloy disc brooch with applied silver or tinned repoussé decoration. There is some iron corrosion to the face of the brooch, making the decoration difficult to discern. It appears to be a triskele design, possibly with a pellet design at the centre of the brooch, surrounded by concentric circles. The brooch is well preserved, with the catch plate and pin in almost pristine condition. The catch plate has some decoration. The face of the brooch appears to have had contact with an iron item, perhaps now disintegrated, leaving corrosion product and red staining on the centre and obscuring much of the face of the brooch. The Celtic-style decoration has led to the attribution of a first-century AD date. Diameter: 39.5mm; Weight: 21.09g
A Roman slide key. The key features a rectangular handle, adorned with a circular loop above and a square-sectioned shaft below. It has some iron corrosion on one side. The handle is decorated on one side with an incised 'X' and a line above and below. Max length: 52.1 mm; max width: 35.0mm; Weight: 27.02g
All surfaces of the object are smooth, suggesting that it did not function as a button or toggle, nor was it metalworking debris. The form is similar to other items which have been identified as gaming pieces. Diameter: 15.7 mm; Weight: 6.59g
