A lead alloy or pewter flanged dish of probable late Roman date. Description The dish is fragmented but is nearly a complete vessel. The plate has a circular base with a short wall which runs vertical from the base at an angle of approximately 80 degrees. The rim is horizontal, flat, and is turned downwards and folded onto the underside thus forming a shallow facet around the perimeter. The form of rim suggests this belongs to Peal type 4b (Peal 1967). The central part of the base is made from a circular sheet of lead alloy. This was either soldered to the rest of…

A complete copper alloy ewer spout dating to the later medieval period (c.AD 1400-1500). The spout takes the form of a plain baluster shape with the attachment flange then waisted in before becoming a larger circumference ball, which in turn, is waisted in, terminating with a small knop at the spout opening. There is evidence of two very worn circumferential lines around the larger portion of the spout. Although now heavily corroded, the spout mouth has a sub-triangular form. The spout has a broken dark green patina. Dimensions: Length 72.96 mm; width 47.52 mm; thickness: 17.04 mm; w…

Lead alloy possible vessel fragment. Cast rim fragment from a small vessel with a flat-topped square rim which overhangs the wall slightly; fiercely abraded with an incised circumferential line below the rim on the outer side. The finder kindly reports that Roman finds have come from the vicinity. The grey tint of metal, however, might point to a more recent date. Suggested date: Unknown, Roman to Post-Medieval, 43-1700 Height: 24.3mm, Width: 26.8mm, Thickness (rim): 10mm, Weight: 13.64gms

A fragment of ceramic greyware strainer/colander or cheese press of probable Roman date, about AD 43-410. The fabric is hard, light grey throughout, has a fine texture and has frequent poorly sorted inclusions of angular clear quartz and dark grey grit. The fragment is part of a base of a vessel perforated with many small cirular holes. Part of the vessel wall survives too, but too little to estimate the size. It is 32.7mm long, 30.9mm wide 13.7mm thick, and weight 14.0g

A complete lead alloy vessel repair or pot mend of Roman to medieval date, c. AD 43-1500. The object is composed of an outer sub-ovate disc on one side of the vessel wall, and a second sub-circular plate on the other. These pieces would have overlapped the broken edges of the vessel on either side of the break, one inside the vessel, the other on the outside, forming a seal. Part of the original pot is still sandwiched between the lead alloy sections. The metal's surface has a powdery pale cream-coloured patina. Length: 32.7 mm, width: 17.8 mm, thickn…

A fragment of a copper alloy vessel of medieval to post-medieval date, c. AD 1350-1600. It is a rim sherd and is sub-triangular in plan. The upper edge of the outer face's rim has a lip c. 8 mm long which thickens slightly before it is set off from the body of the sherd by a thin groove. The inner surface is undecorated. The curve of the rim would suggest fairly large rim diameter and dish volume. The metal has a dark green patina. Length: 34.2 mm, width: 41.7 mm, thickness: 4.5 mm. and weight: 24 g.

An incomplete post medieval cast, copper alloy vessel leg, potentially from a cauldron or posset (c. AD 1600 - 1700). The front surface is slightly curved whilst the back of the object is relatively flat. There is a single central rib running down the front of the leg. The leg has an overall triangular cross-section and turns out at the bottom to form a simple foot. No collar separates the foot and leg. FRG datasheet 41 suggests a 17th century date for this form (fig 4a). The object has a pale green patina with dark green patches.  Width 39 mm, heigh…
