Description: | A copper alloy bell dating to the Roman period c. AD 43 to 410.The object is conical in shape with an irregular bottom edge. There is an incised line running parallel to the presumed base of the object. There is a break at the top of the object however it is possible to see the start of an integrally cast suspension loop. The clapper is missing however there is a corroded iron loop which would have held it.A similar example was excavated from Colchester (see Crummy 1983: 127) and there are several recorded on the PAS database including NCL-F275C5, YORYM-A3A854 and LVPL-6B5094.
