Description: | LeadOffcut. Triangular fragment of cast sheet of a gauge apt to structural use. One face bears the marks from rouletting wheels of two sizes, along with a series of knife-cut strokes which appear to provide a margin for one rouletted line, and also form the 'letters' H H H on one edge - the sheet was cut after all these marks were made, with two straight and one curved edges. Patinated overall. Marks from a rouletting tool usually occur on lead sheet of recent date, but the extent of patination may suggest this piece to be a little earlier. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1700-1800.Length: 52.5mm, Width: 39.6mm, Thickness: 2.4mm, Weight: 25.28gms
