An incomplete Post-medieval lead cloth seal, probably dating to c. AD 1500-1800. A probable 2-part seal, with both discs surviving, although neither is complete. The design on disc-1 is unclear, with that on disc-2 similarly so, although it appears to consist of a line through an oval, potentially a monogram (cf. SOM-7E1AEE).
