English: Early Bronze age copper alloy flat axe, 89mm long and 42mm wide. The axe is in fair condition with a brown/green patina and weighs 95grams. The axe has a narrow and long body which begins 17mm wide and 3mm thick. It tapers gradually and reaches its thickest just under half way along its length where it is 10mm thick and 21mm wide. From this point the axe widens slightly and becomes gradually thinner until it fans out to a blade 42mm wide and 1.5mm thick.
