Bronze scrap from Exe Bridge
Back to Time Period![Bronze scrap from Exe Bridge](/includes/thumb/phpThumb.php?src=/images/objects/7_35.jpg&w=500)
Found in a 15th century deposit below one of the houses on Exe Bridge, these trimmings of copper alloy are the waste pieces from a metal worker's shop. The items being produced seem to have been fairly small and entailed cutting sheets of copper alloy.
