Title
NCL-421006: Early Medieval (possible) metalworking waste
Description
English: An amorphous piece of probably metal-working waste of uncertain date, but probably Early Medieval or Medieval in reference to other objects found in the same area.

The piece of copper alloy is roughly wedge-shaped with uneven and irregular surfaces. However, two faces appear to form a corner, as if the waste had cooled in a box or trough. There are signs of breakage on some of the edges, suggesting the piece was originally larger.

Depicted place (County of findspot) Northumberland
Date between 410 and 1500
