Description: | A damaged and abraded fragment of a ceramic, Medieval aquamanile in the form of an animal's head, probably a ram as this was the most common form. The vessel fabric is an even, pale orange in colour with a mottled green outer glaze. The fragment consists of the front part of the face of the animal with a long snout, incised lines to represent the mouth and applied, indented pellets as eyes. The centre of the snout is hollow and would have acted as the spout for the aquamanile.
