Description: | Medieval lead alloy ampulla, 50mm long and 27mm wide. The ampulla has a white patina and is in good condition, but has been cut open along most of its reverse. It is circular in form and is decorated with a scallop shell design in deep relief. It has a pronounced ridge along its sides and the shell decoration continues onto the back for 10mm, at which point it becomes plain. The neck is completely plain and is narrow and long, 24mm long and 12mm wide. There is a faint trace of a lug on one side of the neck and the torn away lead has been stuffed into the cavity of the ampulla.
