Description: | A very worn and slightly corroded lead-alloy token of probable Medieval to Post Medieval date (c. AD 1250-1800). It is decorated on one side with cross-hatched decoration creating a grid, the underside is plain and has a central concave depression (Powell type 7). The token is small in diameter and as a result has a thicker body with a mid-grey patina.Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally. They are therefore hard to date precisely and could be Medieval to late Post Medieval in date (c. AD 1250-1800).
