A Bronze Age spearhead was found by a farm labourer during the Second World War, on land to the north-east of Waddingham. The exact findspot is uncertain, and may have been in Redbourne parish (North Lincolnshire). The spearhead was made of bronze, in a small (12cm long), Type IV looped and socketed design with leaf-shaped blades and a prominent midrib. The artefact had notches between the lozenge-shaped loops and blades (9 on one side and 8 on the other), suggesting some additional function as a tally. Near the base of one of the blades was a notch which produced a barb. The spearhead was in the possession of Ethel Rudkin, but has since been lost. {1}{2}{3}
