Description: | Nearly complete white clay pipe. According to the typology suggested in Oswald 1975, the pipe dates from c. 1780-1820, and probably before c.1800 (see Figure 3G, 13). At the base of the bowl is a spur. There is an untrimmed mould line along the outside face. One side face shows a masonic symbol in the centre of a crude wreath. The opposite side face shows what is possibly a heraldic shield with a chevron in the centre and three indistinguishable designs, one below and one to either side. The bowl shows signs of use, this being brown and black with tobacco and burning. The stem is largely intact with the exception of the mouthpiece. There is no stamp along the extant stem to denote a maker. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Echtenacher, Beth - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
