Description: | Incomplete cast copper alloy (with high lead content) pendant in the shape of a cross. The front of the cross is recessed and there are five rivet holes, one at the end of each arm of the cross and one in the centre. The rivet holes were presumably to attach the figure of Jesus, making this a crucifix pendant, but the figure is now missing. Within the recess and between the rivets there is a slightly raised zig-zag pattern. The pendant has an integrally cast circular suspention loop. The reverse of the pendant is plain.This pendant has been dated as possibly later Post Medieval but probably Modern, c.1700-1900.
