The action of the tide revealed the barrels and it is unclear how much of the barrels remain. End of the staves, lengths of timber making the sides of the barrel, are visible and clearly degraded. In some cases these give the appearance of flaring outwards, implying that only the lower portion of the barrel remains. At least one barrel exhibits inwardly projecting staves, suggesting more than half of the barrel remains. There is some evidence for the remains of posts protruding from the barrels which otherwise give the appearance of having been filled with sand and stone.\n\nThe term cask is also used to describe barrels specifically intended for the storage of liquid, most commonly alcohol such as wine and beer. It has not been possible at this stage to ascertain the exact size and type of the barrels comprising this find, though it is estimated that they are of a small to medium size such as a Rundlet or Tierce. What the barrels were originally used for is not readily discernible, though it does appear that they have been repurposed for another function. The presence of posts within the barrels and their relative positions, laid out in a rough rectangle, suggests they used to accommodate foundation posts of a possible structure. This may have been a simple platform for bathers or anglers or something more complex such as a temporary jetty or pontoon. An image, submitted by the finder, dating to the 1850s shows structures in approximately the same position as the barrels, which may indicate the structure previously supported by the barrels. Alternatively they may relate someway to the practicing for the D-Day Landings in Normandy, which incorporated the beach and construction of landing pontoons.

All 8 nails have a rose type head and taper to a broad point. These features suggest that the nails were hand wrought, rather than cut or wire, a method where each nail is manufactured individually by hand on a blacksmiths anvil. The invention of the slitting mill c. 1590 simplified this process by manufacturing iron rods from which nails could be cut, tapered and given a head. Between 1790 and 1820 this process began to be replaced by machine cut nails, before eventual replacement by wire nails in the late 19th century. These nails, therefore, likely date from before the mid-19th century.

That doesn't mean that this vessel is a high-status object - saucers and dishes were among the most commonly made pewter items, and would have been in use in humbler households too.\n\nPewterers call chargers, dishes, plates and saucers 'sadware'. The difference between them is based on their sizes, with some overlap between the four occurring. Generally, they are now separated as saucers being anything under 7\" (17.7 cm) in diameter, plates being 7\" to 11\" (17.7 to 27.8 cm) in diameter, dishes being 11\" to 18\" (27.9 to 45.6 cm) in diameter, and chargers being anything larger than this.\n\nEarly British sadware is usually characterised by a plain rim, a gently-rounded bouge and, often, a raised centre to the well. Unfortunately, only a small fraction survives in the archaeological record due to what we would now term recycling, but also because it does not survive well in the environment. Up until about 1640 styles remained relatively static, before a period of rapid changes for nearly a century occurred, before settling back to a stable style which continued until the use of pewter for sadware died out in the 19th century. From c.1640 there was a vogue for sadware with a steeper bouge and broad rim. In Britain, massive amounts of sadware was made between 1650 and 1780 as households across the social divide replaced their wooden tableware with 'modern' pewter. From c.1660 there was a demand for rims with multiple-reeded edges, before the rim widths steadily shrank back to where they had been, though some very narrow rims were also produced. Around 1700, the single reeded rim became popular and the plain rim also re-appeared, though without the gentler bouge of the earlier version. The single reed continued to be produced throughout the 18th century on sadware intended for export to America, but fell out of favour c.1730 for the domestic British market, with the plain rim dominated the market until production of pewter sadware ceased.

Due to the ubiquitous nature of their design, it is difficult to accurately date cannonballs with any certainty. This issue is compounded by the wide variation in designs and calibres of the cannons that fired them and the lifespan of the weapon, with obsolete designs often still in use on merchant ships long after they had fallen out of service with the various navies of Northern Europe, who also used captured weapons on their vessels. Cast iron cannonballs are thought to have appeared at some point during the 15th century and were used as late as the last quarter of the 19th century, having gradually superseded stone cannonballs. By this time, rifled artillery had become the norm. From their general condition and flaking, these examples are heavily corroded. The round shot of speckled appearance could be granite, and may pre-date the cast iron round shot. An element of lead may also be involved in the manufacture of some of the shot in this assemblage.\n\nThe following potential identifications are based on the associated images for this record.\n\nImages 1, 2 & 4:\n\nLeft: 4\u00bc inch iron cannonball, originally weighing approximately 10 pounds. A shot of this size may have been fired by a demi culverin. Demi culverin guns fired round shot of 4 - 4\u00bd inch diameter weighing approximately 12 pounds (Collins 2016). The breaks may have happened after deposition due to the rusting and fracturing of iron.\n\nMiddle: 3\u00bc inch iron cannonball, originally weighing approximately 5 pounds. A shot of this size may have been fired by a saker. Saker guns fired round shot of 3 - 3\u00be inch diameter weighing approximately 6 pounds (Collins 2016).\n\nRight: 3\u00be inch iron cannonball, originally weighing approximately 7 pounds. A shot of this size may have been fired by a saker. This is only a fragment of the cannonball, about two-thirds remain.\n\nImages 3, 5 & 6:\n\nLeft: 2 inch stone shot (possibly granite), originally weighing approximately 1 pound. A shot of this size may have been fired by a falcon. Falcon ordnance of 2\u00bd inch calibre fired round shot weighing approximately 1\u00bd pounds (Collins 2016).\n\nMiddle: 1\u00be inch possible lead alloy shot, originally weighing approximately 12 ounces. A shot of this size may have been fired by a base. Base ordnance of 1\u00bd inch calibre fired round shot weighing approximately \u00bd a pound (Collins 2016).\n\nRight: 1\u00bc inch possible lead alloy shot, originally weighing approximately 4 ounces. A shot of this size may have been fired by a musket. A musket is a long gun, fired from the shoulder, which is muzzle-loaded and has a smooth bore (Collins 2016).", "classification":"Armour and weapons", "periodFrom":36, "periodTo":39, "fromdate":1600, "todate":1875, "treasure":1, "TID":"036\/17", "workflow":3, "institution":"MAS", "datefound1":"2016-09-14T00:00:00Z", "subClassification":"Ammunition", "currentLocation":"With finder", "created":"2016-09-28T09:40:32Z", "updated":"2017-04-13T10:06:30Z", "secuid":"9", "quantity":6, "material":8, "subsequentAction":"28", "completeness":2, "manufacture":1, "preservation":4, "discovery":5, "recorderID":"PAS57BC1B67001A23", "createdBy":2, "countyID":19687, "county":"Essex", "fourFigure":"TQ8182", "fourFigureLat":51.50793861, "fourFigureLon":0.60677648, "what3words":"workroom.fragments.went", "precision":10, "creator":"MAS MAS", "updatedBy":"MAS", "materialTerm":"Iron", "primaryMaterialBM":11019, "manufactureTerm":"Cast", "completenessTerm":"Incomplete", "preservationTerm":"Corroded", "periodFromName":"POST MEDIEVAL", "periodFromBM":"x41047", "periodToName":"NINETEENTH CENTURY", "broadperiodBM":"x41047", "discoveryMethod":"Coastal walking", "subsequentActionTerm":"Submitted as wreck to the Receiver of Wreck", "filename":"MAS100009Shot123a.jpg", "thumbnail":21, "imagedir":"images\/MAS", "recorder":"MF", "timestamp":"2024-10-09T14:13:34.028Z" } ], "facets":{ "objectType":{ "ARCHITECTURAL FRAGMENT":1, "BARREL":1, "CONTAINERS":1, "COSTREL":1, "HANDLE":1, "JUG":1, "KNIFE":1, "NAIL":1, "SAUCER":1, "SHOT":1, "TIMBER":1, "TOOTHBRUSH":1 }, "county":{ "Dorset":2, "Down":1, "East Sussex":1, "Essex":1, "Greater London Authority":1, "Isle of Wight":1 }, "broadperiod":{ "POST MEDIEVAL":12 }, "institution":{ "MAS":12 }, "rulerName":[ ], "denominationName":[ ], "mintName":[ ], "materialTerm":{ "Iron":3, "Stoneware":2, "Wood":2, "Ceramic":1, "Organic":1, "Silver":1, "Stone":1, "Tin or tin alloy":1 }, "workflow":{ "3":12 }, "reeceID":[ ] } }
