Description: | A large lead-alloy pot mend which is broadly oval in plan, although one face is irregularly shaped. The recess between the two plates suggests that the thickness of the vessel walls was a maximum of 2.3mm. The larger plate, has a thickness of 3.5mm, and has an addition of lead with a pattern of fine concentric lines which is likely to be a result of shrinkage during cooling. The other plate is 1.9mm thick and has fabric imprints, suggesting that the vessel was held on fabric while the mend was applied.
