Description: | A lead alloy feeding trough from a bird cage dating from the late fifteenth to late seventeenth century. The trough is squashed almost flat, but originally would have been D shaped in section and shaped like an inverted bell in profile. The base of the trough on the outside is decorated with a central motif (possibly an R or a jug) in a circle, flanked by three circumferential lines on each side. The curved side is decorated with a double raised line round the base and the edge of the rim. Very similar but smaller examples can be seen on page 129 of Egan 2005. The trough is 67.27mm long, 43.03mm wide (high) and 14.02mm thick (front to back). It weighs 83.94g.
