Description: | A fragment of a Medieval or Post Medieval moulded lead or lead alloy window came. The fragment is a corner section which appears to have held three pieces of glass originally. In plan the came is an asymmetrical sub-oval, the upper surface is smaller than the lower surface. The profile of the edges is ']' shaped which would form a sideways 'H' section if the cames were to continue. The cames, have been recently damaged. The majority of the surface has a shiny dark grey patina. The came weighs, 9.5g and measures 25.93mm long, 21.64mm wide and 7.53mm thick. There are no inscriptions of makers' or glaziers to help narrow down the date, but the condition suggests a Post Medieval date, c. 17th to 19th centuries.
