A bunlde of 6 arrows from ?South East Coast with no known provenance or identifying labels. It appears that this group of arrows is an old bundle but there is no evidence of their relation to each other. An oversized 5-pronged arrow, possibly a fish arrow, similar to the one in this bundle has been seen and stored separately.
