A Roman copper-alloy hinged Headstud (Mackreth's Headstud Type 4) bow brooch dating to the late first or second century AD, part of the Piercebridge River Assemblage. The brooch possesses an integral head loop and extends to flat, rectangular wings which conceal a cylindrical extension plates to secure an axis bar and hinged pin. The pin and axis bar are intact. The wings are decorated with vertical ribs and grooves. The bow is distorted but rectangular in plan, tapering slightly to a forward-facing foot. At the top of the bow is a headstud, with central circular knop. The remainder of the bow is separated into a series of rectangular cells. These are empty or filled with discoloured enamel. The catchplate is trapezoidal and runs nearly the full length of the bow. The brooch measures 55mm in length. The wings measure 19mm in width. The bow at its widest measures 8mm in width and the foot measures 7mm in width. Compare with Butcher and Bayley's Type 149 - a simple hinged Headstud brooch with a fixed headloop (Butcher and Bayley 2004, 165) and Mackreth 2011, Vol. II, 75, no. 11860. Mackreth notes that the 'dating runs from the last quarter of the first century into the second with little sign that any should be dated after 125.'This brooch is distorted and may have been subject to fire or intense heat.

Cartonnage mummy mask, made from plaster soaked linen. Anthropoid in form, the mask comprises of a nemes headress, face, collar and some shoulder plates. The headress is higly decorated, the crown back and sides are decorated with a winged vulture design, possibly Mut but probably Nekhbet.The body is decorated with a bead netting design and the wings are of the usual polychrome variety. Beneath the vulture figure the rest of the wig is decorated with concentric rings of flowers, lotus and scarab designs.The headress continues down the face in a vertical striped pattern, consisting of alternating dark and light blue strips.The terminals of the wig are decorated by another flower motif. The face of the mask is gilded, the eyes and eyebrows are depicted in black (on white for eyes) and are in reasonable condition, the nose remains and is in good condition. The ears and lips are present also but are not highlighted in any way, the ears are perhaps a little crude. Beneath the face the neck is decorated with a bead collar, depicted in a blue, red and white isometric design. The collar also has two falcon terminals, both are distinct one represents Horus and the other Sokar. The remaining shoulder areas are covered in a bead netting design which is mirrored in the vulture figure. Overall the piece gives a sense of femininity, the size and design may well mean it was for a woman. Condition, the piece is very badly damaged and extremly fragile the rear of the piece was only briefly examined for this reason. A large part of the right hand side of the headress is missing. This has also led to a large crack in the face, again right side. The piece is also extensively chipped and in need of conservation.

A copper-alloy pin dating to the Roman period, part of the Piercebridge River Assemblage. The pin possesses a circular-section stem which tapers to a point at one end. At the other, the stem is decorated with five disc and groove mouldings, before terminating in a small, sub-conical head. The pin measures 118mm in length and has a maximum diameter of 4mm. The pin forms part of Cool's Group 5 (Simple Grooved heads) which have been found in contexts dating from the late first to the fourth century AD. However, its appears that their greatest period of popularity was the second century AD (Cool 1990, 157 and Fig. 4, no. 10).
