Description: | A copper-alloy heavy-duty thimble of probable late medieval to early post-medieval date (E.F. Holmes; 1988; pp.1).The slightly squashed thimble measures 23.2mm in diameter at the bottom and tapers slightly towards the top. There is a large hole at the top - this may have been created deliberately or may be the result of post-depositional damage. Apart from a plain band at the bottom, the outer surface is entirely covered with irregular columns of closely spaced punched circular indentations. The walls of the thimble are 1.2mm thick, the height is 18.8mm and the weight is 12.14g.
