Castleacre is now called Castle Acre. The full title of the Publication is "Bronze Age Metalwork in Norwich Museum". The drawing shows Length 90, Edge 77, but it is not written in the front of the card. Might say 10% something (tin?) in Composition. In Collection, it says "FROM WATER-COLOUR DRAWING... ". It also seems to have been struck through and another item is referenced (Castleacre 22.08(1)), I'd better leave this one for you experts to sort out.

approx. half dull green, half dark brown, dry surface, much pock-scarred - a few with pale green corrosion deposits within. Whole surface appears lost leaving v. rounded features.
5.4
Seemed strange to have "Surface" as a separate text box when on the card it's part of the Description section., I have transcribed the text as I understood it, but haven't put "(?)" where I'm unsure my transcription is correct. In place of the three dots in a pyramid under "Condition" I've expanded to "[therefore]" - hope this is appropriate.
null
null
Typology body angles rounded - poss. due to condition, Manufacture hints of possible edge bevel about 5.5mm in from edge: plane-convex profile poss. from casting in open mould unless subsequent damage: irregular fissure extends across about half of body from one side - poss. casting flaw, or damage?, Condition present 'squared off' blade tips come to rounded edges not dissimilar from rest of edge - [therefore] not certain whether blade tips broken off; indentation on side of butt associated with filing biting gold metal - prob. would have been symmetrical

LOVE, Mr Barry private (1993),680 Kenton Lane, Harrow-Weald,Middlesex., Found by Paul Durbridge using an m-d (92 Colesville Outton Broad, Lowestoft) about 1980 or before at foot of a 35 to 50 ft cliff, on the beach, perhaps having eroded out (c. 12ft erosion ber year!). Mr Love told me on the telephone that he and a friend were metal-detecting c. 12 years ago (ie 1981). He bought the axe off his friend. It was picked out of collapse at the foot of the cliff and the soil was light and sandy.

Mainly a fine dk green pat.; speckle pocking, esp. at edge; scattered granules adhering; a few brighter green spots; small mod. chip reveals coppery brown colour.

Grid reference shows the find spot 795 metres SSE of Covehithe. Located in the sea about 200m from the cliff face shown in 2005. No doubt a consequence of the severe erosion.
null
A second flat-axe was found on a seperate occasion in the field above, c. 200 yds in from cliff top. The field is ploughed right up to cliff.
No flanges; however, slight dishing inside edges; ripple faceting of both sides; punch marks irregular in size and shape and wayward in orientation; tendency for clustering; becoming fainter at haft-end - ?wear; edge bevel poorly defined on rev.; carry grinding marks - transverse & vertical., Cutting edge with intact p., but neatly rounded (though thin); close to one tip is an anc. hammer dent; plus an anc. chipping.

Mainly dull gold-brown [...] mini-pocked surface, some brighter gold-flocking; few darker green-brown patches - likely remnant base of patina; some deeper pocks assoc. with light green and fir green corr.
11.8,Teb. 8.5,depth e.b. 12
Top left of card contains "c. TQ 377", and aligned under the "377", "393". I'm not sure if this is a grid reference. Although the Site doesn't say "25 North End", but just "North End", the circumstances mention that specific address. I wasn't sure whether to enter that info. in the Site address. The Site didn't say "England" either, but I have added that because I have seen it done that way on most other cards. I transcribed Context into Associations. Note - I haven't always included the Context code as well as the words on some previous cards - sorry. I transcribed Typology, Manufacture, Condition into Description. I transcribed Surface into Surface, but I think some of it may relate to patina. I transcribed the Metallurgy - Analyst bit (I assume BM Res. Lab. stands for British Museum Research Laboratory) into Composition. (I put this bit in in Remarks on an earlier card, but Composition seems more appropriate). Boxes at bottom right of card contains some info: Rec. "SN .Feb '81", Sub.Inf. "Miss Chewter 27/10/80 (& Fiona Marsden, Lewes)", unlabelled box "RSO 27/10/80", Source "Sb.A.". There are also ticks in boxes labelled PIF, DF, SI and CI., PS do we transcribers ever get any feedback if we are doing it all wrong?

A different layout than I am used to. Top left says "50 3100 7344" in a box labelled NGR. Maybe this is a grid reference? In the Site, "Stow" should be "Stowe". Circumnstaces says :"Found by a metal-detectorist Aug/Sep 1989 at a depth of 2.5cm". Context says "Single Find". I transcribed the contents of the Typology and Condition fields into Description.
