Found this today, first signal after first five steps.  I think its Bronze Age but cannot be sure until I let my local FLO have a look.  It was a pleasure to find though  Cheesy Grin

Yeah I would go with that. Broken off tip of a Bronze Age socketed Axe of about 1000 BC. Nice find and now where is the rest of it.  Grin Would like to see it in scale and what is it,s metal content.

That's nice Mark, tantalising piece, sometimes broken as an offering so they say.

It's made of bronze Alan, but the patina does make it look like iron.
