Description: | A lead alloy shot, probably for use with a Carbine or small Musket of Post Medieval dating circa AD 1600-1800.The shot is broadly spherical in form although it has been flattened on one side. It is cream to light brown coloured with an uneven surface patina. Abrasion, caused by movement whilst within the plough soil, has resulted in the loss of some of the original surface detail.It has a diameter of 18.1 mm, a thickness of 12.56mm and weighs 21.3 grams.Harding, D.F.
