Title
Bronze Age Socketed axehead
Description
English: Complete Late Bronze Age, copper-alloy, looped, socketed axehead. It has 3 parallel ribs running along either side of the blade, a double moulding around the mouth and a distinctive lump between the loop and the blade. A very similar example was excavated from the Breiddin Hillfort (about 10km away) and this form is a common type in north and east Wales and the Marches (Musson, C R et al 1991, pp133 & 136). Three axeheads were found at Cherrytree Bank, Welshpool in 1977 (CPAT PRN2192). Two were donated to Powysland Museum, the third was retained by the finder (or a member of his family) and subsequently lost. This was found in a house in Llanymynech and appears (from records made in 1977) to be the missing axehead. Re-reported in July 2005.
