Description: | Fragment of a post Medieval, cast lead alloy, toy. This consists of part of what appears to have been, a rectangular panel, truncated at one end and bearing what had been elaborate decoration set within raised, pelleted, frames. On one face the design consist of a running pattern of linked pellets in groups of four, each with a central pellet. The other face bears a more elaborate grouping of pellets which may have been floral. Length 21.9mm, Width 19.0mm, Thickness 1.7mm, Mass 4.14g.While it is impossible to be certain this fragment has some resemblence to some of the seventeenth century toy furniture shown by Forsyth and Egan (2005, 214, No. 6.30 dated to 1640), The 'cluttered' nature of the decoration on the object recorded here is in keeping with a seventeenth cenury date.
