Description: | A sword or dagger pommel, a shortened hollow 'scent-stopper' form (LMMC 1967, 43 and fig.9, no.11). The oval top (32.5mm x 29mm, length 17mm) has incised lines radiating from a sub-rectangular perforation containing corroded remains of iron tang, forming eight 'petals' with a curved incised line at the end of each defining an upturned terminal. Weighs 51.87g. Very close to a pommel from Dereham (NMS-IDE852), and similar to an example from Tacolneston (HER 35831) shown in Norfolk Archaeology 44 (2002), 161, fig.7 D. 2nd half of the 15th century.
