Description: | An incomplete lead-alloy ampulla of the Walsingham shrine. There is the trace of one handle, but the other is completely missing. The rim is crimped and the wide neck tapers in before expanding out at the body. The obverse has a'W'at the centre within a plain concentric border. There is part of a second and in places a third concentric moulded border closer to the edge, although the circles are not complete in either case. The reverse has moulded scallop-shell ornament. The ampulla is 53mm in length and 31.5mm in width. It dates from the 15th century. | 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: | 1400
