Description: | A cast pewter (lead-alloy) spoon bowl of post-medieval date. The spoon has been broken at the junction of the bowl and handle. On the upper surface, just within the bowl from the break, is a maker's mark within a shield-shaped cartouche: '1668//WI'. This may indicate the pewterer William Jackson who worked in London between 1668 and 1687 (Jackson 1970, 64). The tip of this spoon has been folded back on itself on the upper surface. The bowl has a flattened rim that narrows as it travels towards the tip. It has corroded slightly to a variable silver-grey colour.
