Description: | Ten cast lead musket balls and one pistol ball, all of post-medieval date. The pistol ball is 9.3mm in diameter; the musket balls measure between 11.4 and 18.9 mm in diameter. A number of the musket balls appear 'chewed', while the largest features a circular hole caused possibly by a 'worm' (a tool used to remove musket balls which had become lodged following a misfire). | 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
