Description: | A worn, irregular lead plug for the repair of a damaged vessel. The plug has a groove where it was fitted to the wall of the broken vessel. There are some linear markings on the smaller, outer face of the plug which may possibly be a linen print. Such plugs were in use from at least the Roman period until the post-medieval period, and without the presence of a pottery sherd are almost impossible to date closely. | Subjects: | pot mend | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Webley, Robert - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
