A complete post-medieval cast lead shot bullet (c.1600-1800). There is a casting seam around the bullet. The surface is patchy beige and white with hints of blue. There is a large dipped indentation caused by something striking the bullet; this is probably post-depositional damage. The surface within this indentation is slightly shiny.
