Description: | Small cast cu-alloy vessel fragment, probably the upper part of a bell, dating from the late post-medieval or modern period. The surface is corroded and the vessel's original colour and decoration are now indeterminable. It might be the upper part of a bell because of the thinly cast, heavily tinned cu-alloy and also, the hole which is in the centre of the top of the object. This would have been the hole though which the clapper was inserted from the inside. The clapper is now missing. The object could have been a sheep, goat's or small cow bell.
