An incomplete lead shot dating to the Post Medieval period (c. AD 1600-1800). The object is roughly spherical in shape with a number of pits and deep scratches over its surface. The shot does not appear to have been fired. The object has a light grey patina. As stated by Leahy and Lewis (2018: 345), it is important to accurately record the exact location of lead shots or musket balls and cannon balls, because they can 'reveal the course of a battle or even tell us where an action took place.' The shot measures 23mm in diameter.
