A near-complete cast tin alloy bead of unknown date. The bead is roughly circular in plan and sub-oval in section with external diameter of 13.6 and 8.5mm thick.

An incomplete pewter object in the form of a fish, probably dating to the Post Medieval to Modern period (c. AD 1700-1900). The object is flat and depicts the head, body and tail of a fish with moulded features depicting the face, scales and tail. The details are apparent on both faces of the object. The edges have been broken away around the face and lower part of the body. There is no evidence of form of attachment therefore it is uncertain if this object was a mount or part of a larger object. A similar object recorded on the PAS database is DUR-EB76EC. Suggestions for this exam…
