Description: | Top of a small clapper bell, made from shiny silvery bell-metal. The top is flattish with a groove close to the angle with the body of the bell. There is an integrally cast trapezoidal suspension loop with a circular perforation. Inside are the remains of the iron clapper. A short length of the sides of the bell survives, with a maximum diameter of 30 mm. These bells are difficult to date because the design changed little over the centuries; they may be medieval or post-medieval. Surviving length 35 mm. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Geake, Helen - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
