A Post Medieval zoomorphic knife handle, made from animal skeletal material (bone or ivory), dating to the late 16th century. This knife handle tapers towards the socket for the knife; it is oval in cross-section and the terminal is carved to form a three-dimensional zoomorphic head, probably depicting a horse. The handle is hollowed to approximately half-way along its length to accommodate the tang of the knife. Part of the socket and part of the zoomorphic terminal is broken and missing. The body of the handle is decorated with bands of 3 parallel lines. Of the zoomorphic head the neck, mouth and mane are surviving. The detail on the head is marked by carved lines, for example, one diagonal line marks the jaw and the mane is depicted by a series of transverse short lines. The head is also decorated with two ring and dot motifs on each side of the head; one on the side of the face and one on the neck.<\/p>\n
This knife handle fits within the panoply of this kind of carving for the late 16th century. T is similar in style to LON-A2DDE5 and LVPL-088561 although both are anthropomorphic rather than zoomorphic.<\/p>\n

A Post Medieval copper alloy button dating late 16th - 17th century. This is a spherical, openwork button; each half is shaped like a flower with a central pellet and six oval petals; there are gaps between each petal. The wire shank has been attached to one of the petals slightly off-centre from the mid-line of the button. There are traces of a possible white metal coating. The button has been slightly squashed, distorting its overall shape.<\/p>

A Post Medieval copper alloy sundial dating to the 17th - 18th century. This sundial comprises a circular band forming a ring with a circumferential groove around the centre and a slit that extends approximately one third along the length of this groove. The shape of the ring has been distorted and flattened. It is broken across two small circular perforations which probably originally secured the ring from which the sundial would be suspended. Originally there would have been a small slide within the slit used for telling the time, but this is missing. Opposite the slit \"OCT\" is marked on the external surface.
\nThe outer surface of the dial has the months of the year incised in a graduated scale, indicated by their initial letter. January to June are indicated left to right on the upper half of the dial, above the central groove if the attachment loop is at the right. These letters are stamped I F M A M I. By inverting the dial, the months of July to December can be read from left to right on the upper half. These are I A S O N D. The earlier months are now upside-down on the lower half of the dial. When the dial is orientated this way, the markings on the inner surface are legible from left to right and the right way up.
\nThis inner surface is essentially the clock face. There are two circumferential grooves which divide the inner surface into thirds. The upper row has the numbers 1-7, the middle row has the number 12 below the number 1 on the row above and the lower row has the numbers 11, 10, 9, 8 arranged in that order below the 12. There are diagonal lines extending the width of the ring through each of the upper row numbers. The copper alloy has a mid green patina.<\/p>

A Post Medieval lead alloy fragment of a toy probably dating 16th - 17th century. The fragment includes part of an openwork frame which may be an element from a piece of furniture. The frame has one curved end and two arms which flare out. The ends of the arms appear to be complete. There is a small loop projecting from the external edge of the curved end and two small projections from the internal edges of each of the arms. This may be the remains of a bar which connected the two arms. The frame is decorated on both surfaces with moulded triangular patterns. There is a break across the loop and also one of the arms is broken but present.<\/p>

A Post Medieval ceramic sherd from a Westerwald stoneware jug dating to the early 17th century. The sherd includes all of the rim and neck of the jug and the applied face-mask. There is a scar at the point of attachment for the upper section of the handle. The sherd is salt-glazed light grey stoneware with cobalt-blue painted decoration under the glaze. The mask shows a face in full view with a ridged line running down the centre of the forehead and the nose, and then a separated line running under the noise and down either side of the mouth, similar to a moustache. Around the face there are radiating pointed ovals. To each side of the mask there are three stamped motifs in the shape of an inverted heart with decorative terminal projecting from the point. At the junction between the neck and the body there are decorative ridge and grooves.<\/p>
\n<\/p>\n\n
A very similar face-mask is shown on the neck of a baluster jug illustrated in Gaimster (1997:260 no.114). Gaimster describes this as a baluster jug with pulled lip and strap handle, with a domed pewter lid and double-acorn thumb piece. Applied around the body of the jug is a frieze of seven shields-of-arms for the Electoral College set within an arcade, each identified by initials. The neck of the jug has an applied grotesque lion-mask.<\/p>

An early Post Medieval silver gilt incomplete ball-headed pin dating 1500-1600. Only the spherical head remains of this pin, the shaft is missing. The head is hollow and there is a circular hole in the base for articulation with pin shaft. The head is decorated with six filigree large rings; three above a circumferential ridge around the midline and three below. These rings above and below the circumferential ridge are arranged so that each lower ring is set in the space between the two above. Inside each ring there are three smaller rings arranged around a central pellet. At the peak of the head there is a small filigree ring with a pellet inside. In between each of the large rings there is a smaller ring with a pellet above abutting the circumferential ridge. A large proportion of gilding remains.<\/p>

An early Post Medieval iron dagger with wooden split handle dating 1550 - 1625. This knife has a scale tang which is bifurcated midway along the handle so there are two butts. There is a knife end cap remaining on one of the butts, the end cap is missing from the other. The remaining end cap is oval with a copper alloy plate terminal. The scale handle is wooden and secured by rivets; small sections of the handle are missing but the majority is still present. A copper alloy shoulder plate remains on one side of the blade at the junction with the handle but is missing from the other side. The blade tapers towards the point but the point is missing. It has a triangular cross-section tapering towards the cutting edge. There is a maker's mark of a cross approximately one third of the way along the blade just below the back of the blade.<\/p>

A Post Medieval lead alloy object possibly a pin head probably dating 16th - 18th century. This object has been cast to form an openwork cinquefoil with large rounded central boss and small rounded projections between each petal. On the reverse the front central boss continues as an oval projection with some iron corrosion, suggesting this may have originally had an iron element. The shape of the central section is slightly distorted and bent out of alignment. No precise parallels could be found, this may be a pin head or the front section to a button.<\/p>
