ENLARGE IMAGE
 

Padlock key

Several locks were found at Thrislington, and even then people were always losing their keys.

Several keys were found on site, mainly made of iron. This particular example was for a padlock key around 10 cm long, about double the size of today's keys.

Compare this with other keys found at the site, or continue exploring the archive.
