Description: | An iron bullet mould. It consists of a roughly triangular lump of iron, with one side flat and the other rounded. The flat side has a hemispherical hollow, joined to a half-conical hole in the edge, for pouring the lead. In the corners of the flat side there are three raised knobs, designed to fit into hollows in the other half of the mould, to hold it in position. On the rounded side of the mould, there is a small square stump, which may be the remaining part of some sort of handle. This mould dates to the Post-Medieval period. | 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: | 1600
