Description: | Fragment of lead ?vessel or ?plaque, all breaks ancient and possibly with two original edges. These are bound by a curving rib and possibly suggest a flat handle. Above these the top edge is also possibly original though quite mangled in appearance. If so this could be a rim. Beneath it is a decorative incised line. Decoration is moulded and below the incised line and to either side of the fragment are two concentric circles inside each other and around a central pellet. Between is a lozenge above a larger pellet, which in turn sits on top of a heart. The style of the decoration suggests this is late 16th/ 17th century in date, though it remains unclear what this fragment was part of. Measures 43.5x46x4(max)mm and weighs 46.29g. | 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: | 1550
