Description: | Incomplete cast lead pilgrim ampulla of Medieval date, probably fourteenth or fifteenth century. Length 34mm, width 30mm and a maximum thickness of 6mm. Weight 24.19g. The ampulla has been flattened and the neck is missing and the break is ragged and old. Both of the suspension loops are broken and missing. However, the stubs of these remain. The body is roughly circular in plan. The obverse face is decorated but due to corrosion it is difficult to determine what the design might have been although it is possibly a crown. The reverse face is decorated with a heart motif which is cross-hatched within. The ampulla appears to be in a stable condition.
