Description: | Fragment of lead ?vessel or ?plaque, all breaks ancient and possibly with two original edges. These are bound by a curving rib and possibly suggest a flat handle. Above these the top edge is also possibly original though quite mangled in appearance. If so this could be a rim. Beneath it is a decorative incised line.Decoration is moulded and below the incised line and to either side of the fragment are two concentric circles inside each other and around a central pellet. Between is a lozenge above a larger pellet, which in turn sits on top of a heart.The style of the decoration suggests this is late 16th/ 17th century in date, though it remains unclear what this fragment was part of.Measures 43.5x46x4(max)mm and weighs 46.29g.
