Description: | Post medieval copper alloy crotal bell, complete with iron pea. It measures 41.3mm in diameter, hangs 48.4mm tall and weighs 61.25g. The loop is rectangular with a slightly damaged cross-bar (16.5x13.6mm), with a square perforation 7.2x7.7mm.
A thick rib runs around the circumference seprating the two halves of the bell. The top half is undecorated and both perforations have been crudely widened, and not at all circular in shape now. They have jagged but smooth edges. The lower half has radiating grooves either side of the slit which joins the two perforations (these still being circular). To one side of the split within a double-grooved U, is a grooved T or hammer maker's mark.
