Description: | A copper alloy spherical bell with a rumbler still inside. The bell is complete, spherical in shape with a horizontal ridge running around the centre. The top half has a central rectangular loop on top, with a sub-rectangular perforation. There is a hole on either side of the loop, one of which is wider, with the other not properly finished with a casting flage still round the edge of the hole. The bottom has a slit running across the underside, ending with a hole at each end. There is a complete lack of decoration. It has a black hue with a patchy brown and green patina and measures 38.63mm long and 31.46mm in diameter, weighing 33.50g. This bell is likely to date to the 17th century due to its disproportionately large loop (Bailey, 1999. p.44,45). | Subjects: | spherical | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
