ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENT

Unique ID: YORYM-CA1BC1

Object type certainty: Certain
Workflow status: Awaiting validation

A cast lead object, possibly a vent cover from a brick vent or a window. The object is decoratively moulded in an openworked lattice. It is probably post-medieval in date. The vent was circular, it was then folded in half and then half again. So it appears as a quarter circle.
