Description: | An incomplete medieval (1150-1500) lead pilgrim's ampulla, missing its side lugs and part of one face of the neck. The ampulla is bent at the neck, almost to 90 degrees. The neck flares in width from 22.53mm to 30.45mm at the crimped (top) edge. The rounded end (28.05mm wide) depicts a scallop shell with grooved decoration on one side (Spencer's type II) and an apparently crowned W on the other - a horizotal rib sits above the W with a fleur de lis extending from the centre. There appears to be no other decoration, although the surface is rather worn (on both faces).The ampulla measures 51.70mm in length, 5.35mm in maximum thickness and weighs 39.74g.
