Description: | A sheet copper-alloy teardrop shaped bell of medieval date. The sheet has been rolled into a cone, and four pointed tabs at the base have been bent inwards to contain the pea, the slits between them forming sound holes. The tabs have been slightly squashed and overlap in places, but the iron pea survives in place. There is a seam along the side of the bell. The oval suspension loop is flat and perforated, with some wear at the top of the loop. There is a transverse ridge below the loop to one side. The loop has been bent slightly to one side as a result of old damage.
