Description: | Inscribed: "I.SABIDIVS.HELICO.FEC", Very heavy, lead, hollow pipe. Not completely cylindrical - there is a flat 'platform' on top side, directly above the writing, 22mm wide. It has been broken at the right end and may cut off the letters 'IT' from the word FEC(it), although these may not actually have been articulated. So it may read "Sabadius Helico built this". It is probably a section of a Roman lead water pipe, perhaps 100BC -200AD.,
