Description: | A lead mount. It is an oval shape and is bent, probably due to plough damage. It is c.47.9mm x 42.76mm, but one edge appears to be incomplete, and the object may have been approximately circular originally. It is c. 2.5mm in thickness and weighs 38.14g. It has a central perforation 4.59mm in diameter, with a further five smaller, irregular holes, evenly spaced around it, closer to the circumference. One surface, presumably the upper, has scored lines, one roughly joining up the ring of perforations, and others forming small triangles and polygons.The object may have formed a backing plate or acted as a collar. It is probably of Post-medieval date, 17th-18th century. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
