Description: | Cast lead figurine of uncertain function. The object is in the form of a bird, possibly a dove, whose wings are closed together above its back. The tail is long and sub-rectangular in plan and the head rounded with a small moulded mouth. Feathers are represented by worn linear grooves. At the base of the object is a transverse slot which contains some iron corrosion. The object has a light brown patina. The object probably dates from the Post-Medieval period.
