Description: | An incomplete lead ampulla, only the pouch of this ampulla survives. It is 27mm in height and 26mm in width. The obverse face has an open pouch shape with twp vertical lines projecting upwards from it. The reverse has the 'long arrow' of Walsingham, with its tip in the form of the letter V within a double circle. An identical pouch shaped ampulla is illustrated in Mitchiner (1986, 141). The letter V is believed to stand for 'Virgo.' Ampulla alluding to Walsingham, have nearly all been found in East Anglia and are dated to the 15th century.
