A copper alloy Middle Bronze Age side looped and socketed spearhead dating to the period c. 1600 - 900 BC. The blade is leaf-shaped with a lozengiform sectioned midrib. It exhibits a hollow socket and cast side loops. The spearhead measures 105.16mm in length, 18.87mm maximum width, 3.79mm minimum width and weighs 47.62g.

The tip of the blade terminates in an old break and the edges of the blade are incomplete due to extensive old breakages. The blade measures 55.71mm in length, 18.87mm maximum width, 3.79mm minimum width. The edge of the blade is 1.11mm thick, tapering to a maximum thickness of 3.25mm. The centre of the blade is divided by a tapering lozenge shaped midrib which expands into the socket of the spear from a thickness of 2.65mm at the tip to 11.55mm. The central line of the midrib extends to the mouth of the socket. The socket mouth is circular in shape and measures 17.63mm in diameter. The mouth of the socket exhibits old breakages around the circumference. The socket is c.69.84mm deep.

The loops are positioned on either side of the socket, approximately opposite one another. The loops measure 17.97mm in length, 3.67mm in width and project 3.10mm from the socket. One loop is incomplete due to old breaks. Casting ribs are visible running along both sides of the body from the mouth to the point at which the blade commences.

The spearhead has a mottled dark green patina and the surface is heavily pitted.

Similar looped spearheads have been classified by Margaret Ehrenberg as Class IV dated to the Middle Bronze Age specifically the second phase of Acton Park (2), Taunton (Cemmaes) or Pennard metalworking traditions. These phases correspond with Needham's Period 5 (c. 1500 - 1150 BC).
