Description: | 36
Incomplete cast copper alloy Post-Medieval crotal bell, of spherical shape with a sub-square suspension loop. Undecorated. Length from the top of the suspension loop to the base of the bell, 36mm. Diameter 31mm. Weight 23.59g. The pea is missing. The upper hemisphere is divided from the lower hemisphere by a raised rib extending horizontally around the circumference. Two ?sound? holes are situated on the upper hemisphere; one either side of the suspension loop. A further two sound holes are situated on the lower hemisphere. These are on the same alignment as the suspension loop. These two holes would originally have been connected by a narrow channel. However, this part of the bell is broken and missing. The breaks appear to be old. The upper and lower holes are all about 6mm in diameter. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1500
