Description: | Crumpled fragment of a cast lead ampulla of Medieval date, probably fourteenth or fifteenth century (AD 1300 - AD 1500). Length 16mm, width 22mm and 7mm thick. Weight 10.81g. (includes a small amount of soil within).The obverse is decorated with moulded ribs that, when complete, would have formed a scallop-shell design. The reverse has part of a moulded motif, possibly the letter T (the other part of the letter is missing due to the break). The motif is surrounded by cross-hatching. However, the cross-hatching is barely visible due to surface corrosion. The surfaces are corroded and the breaks are ragged and old.
