Have found 4 fuzes in the past 2 days
 
The first picture looks like the top of a fuze, the second is a 12 volt flasher unit made by Lucas from a civilian car probably from the early 1960's

yep the 246 was anti aircraft i clean all my brass fuses by submergeing them in white vinigar over night then brush them up with wire wool but dont let the aluminium topps of the 199's touch the vinigar or it will corrrode them allot and do a bit of damage the aluminium topps should clean um with wire wool and walm soapy water and maby a wire brush

Thanks for the tips, William! Incredibly I've found Bronze Age items on the same field. Big span of history. Here's the vid if you want to have a look:
