Description: | An incomplete lead anthropomorphic toy of late post-medieval date. The object represents a human figure with the head and arms having been lost to worn breaks. The figure is hollow although it seem to be filled with organic material from deposition. The figure is wearing what appears to be military uniform with a sword hanging at the left side of the waist but due to the degree of wear it is difficult to see any detail that would further identify the type of uniform. The feet are spread apart with the right leg slightly in front of the left and the feet are placed on a sub-rectangular, flat piece of lead which has been bent to one side. A casting seam is present up the sides of both legs.The metal is a greyish-white colour and is worn. The figure is 57.18mm long, 23.83mm wide, 8.97mm thick and weighs 39.03g.
