Description: | Medieval incomplete lead ampulla, most of upper part including one lug missing. On one face a downward-pointing arrow (head missing). On the other a round-based narrow-necked pot within a cross-hatched crescent. Height 49mm. Width (estimated) 34mm. The arrow is an enigmatic symbol of Our Lady of Walsingham, and the pot represents the phial of Holy Milk, which stood on the high altar of the priory church. Late 14th ?? early 16th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Bales, Ellen - Norfolk Museums and Archaeology Service | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
