Description: | A Post Medieval lead-alloy musket ball dating from c.AD 1600- AD 1800. The item is circular in plan and D-shaped in section. The flattening that has occured on one side is probably as a result of imapct after being fired. The convex surface has a mould line visible and at right angles to the mould lne are a series of concentric lines running around the circumference. These lines are probably from the original mould surface. The patina is pale gray in colour.
