Description: | A lead mend for a pottery vessel. The mend takes the form of a crudely made rivet with a sub-circular, domed head, short shank and sub-circular 'stop'. The surviving pottery fragment is pink in colour, has frequent sand inclusions and an orange and mottled green glazed outer surface. The majority of the vessel is flat, but there is an angular extension on one side, perhaps suggesting that the original pot was a tray-like vessel. The fabric itself bears many characteristics of Late Medieval Hertfordshire glazed ware (c. 1350-1450). The piece measures 31.5mm in diameter, 15.8mm thick and weighs 44.4g.
