Description, scan 2

A single corroded metal object, roughly rectangular with an uneven upper edge, photographed against a pale background. Several round raised bumps, possibly rivets or studs, sit along the top and lower part, and the surface is pitted and encrusted. No scale or label is visible.

Description, scan 3

Two long, thin, heavily corroded metal objects are shown one above the other on a pale mounted print. The upper object is narrow and tapers to a point at its top end, while the lower one is thicker with a flat, blunt end. Their surfaces are encrusted and pitted, and a handwritten number label sits at the bottom edge of the mount.

Description, scan 4

A single dark grey metal object, bent into a long arc that tapers toward the right end, with a tight coil or loop at the left end. It lies on a white card mounted on a cream backing, and a handwritten note runs along the bottom edge of the frame. The metal looks corroded, and its material cannot be determined from the photograph.

Description, scan 5

A dark grey ring with ragged, uneven edges sits near the centre of a pale, plain card. Its inner area is light and empty apart from a small blue mark near the lower edge. A cream mount border surrounds the card, and no weapons or tools are visible.

Description, scan 6

Metal objects are laid out in rows on a plain light grey ground. Along the top are a spiral-ended hook, two plain rings, a small object with projecting arms and a curved fragment. Below are long corroded rods, a bent rod with a hooked top and flared end marked with a blue number label, a flat plate with small holes, two lumpy fragments and two tapering blades.

Description, scan 7

A single corroded metal ring, dark grey with a rough, flaking surface, shown centred on a plain white card. One section of the ring is thicker and has a broken, uneven edge where the metal has worn away. The cream surround of the print is visible at the edges of the frame.

Description, scan 8

A single corroded metal rod, bent into an S-shaped curve, is shown against a pale grey background on a mounted print. One arm ends in a broken, squared tip, while the other end is thicker, tapers and flares slightly at the base. The rough, encrusted surface shows small pits along the lower part.

Description, scan 9

A long, slightly curved iron object photographed upright against a pale background and mounted on a cream card. It is encrusted with grey-brown corrosion, broader and rougher at the top, and tapers to a narrow point at the bottom.
