Description: | A medieval cast lead alloy bi-faced secular badge in the shape of a cockerel. On both faces are the same raised details of cockerel; the eyes, beak, tail and feathers. There is no obvious means of attachement. The badge is complete apart from missing the cockerel's feet. It measures 17.7mm (length) x 14.5mm (height) x 1.3mm (thickness) and weighs 0.96g.The badge is similar to one catalogued in Spenser (1998, 318 ref. 316); he dates cockerel badges to c. 1350-1500 AD.
