Description: | Incomplete cast lead alloy (?pewter) spoon of probable Late Medieval or Early Post Medieval date (AD 1400 ? AD 1700). Length 99mm, width of bowl 32mm, thickness of bowl, about 1.5mm. Weight 20.02g. The stem is sub-circular in cross-section near the bowl and evolves into an oval shape in cross-section at an old break which has occurred 47mm from the top of the bowl. The shallow bowl is oval in plan, although it is slightly pointed at the bottom. On the reverse, there is a moulded tri-lobed motif at the junction of the stem and bowl. The edges of the bowl have old ragged breaks and the stem is bent backwards. The grey coloured surfaces are corroded and have a whitish powdery deposit in places. There is no evidence for a maker?s mark. | 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
