Description: | Lead plug with attached pottery fragment. Probably a mend for a pottery vessel. Although the pottery fragment is too small to be dated these items are usually Roman in date. Consists of a sub-oval, slightly convex (ie dome shaped) lead front plate, containing a small hole (damage) and irregular edges and surface. This measures 35.2mm long, by 27.1mm wide. On the reverse a lead stem extends from the mid point of the front plate and terminates in a smaller, irregularly-shaped, second plate (parallel to the first). A small piece of orange courseware pottery is sandwiched in between these two plates. The total thickness of the piece is 13.1mm. Weight = 30.83g. | Subjects: | pot mend | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
