Description: | Lead AlloyPilgrim Badge fragment, as identified by finder. Cast fragment depicting architectural tracery, apparently the head of a window; both sides are modelled. This could derive from a badge depicting the martyrdom of Thomas Beckett or from a representation of his shrine or reliquary; or may refer to the Annunciation, or the Marian house supernaturally transported to Walsingham. A pendant fleur de lis in the window head might suggest a Marian devotion. Suggested date: Medieval, 1200-1400.Length: 31.5mm, Width: 20.6mm, Thickness: 4mm, Weight: 4.03gms.
