An incomplete Early Post-Medieval (1500-1700) copper alloy sword belt fitting, consisting of a hooked plate looped into a suspension loop with a fragment of adjoining mount. This fragment of mount would have had three suspension loops from which a trio of such hooked plates would have hung. In turn, the scabbard straps would have been attached to these plates. The hooked plate is roughly triangular in form, with the remains (worn break) of a pierced knop (for the iron rivet) at one end while the globular-terminalled hook, which curves back on itself to meet the decorated face of the p…

Object type: SHOT
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Lead musket ball. Cast ball with mould line and an untrimmed casting sprue. The mass, which is over one averdepois ounce, indicates this could serve in a smooth bore musket of military specification. The sprue would not prevent the ball being used so long as it was positioned in line with the gun barrel. It could be deliberately left on a shot intended to be included is a paper cartridge along with its propellant charge of gunpowder. It may alternatively indicate the local manufacture of shot, as the products of an arsenal would be more systematically trimmed. Suggested date: Post-Med…

Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Lead musket ball. Cast shot with smoothed stub of sprue and with a deep dent from impact, lightly patinated overall. The mass, at just over one averdepois ounce, suggests this would be apt for a smoothbore muzzle loading weapon of military specification. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1800. Diameter: 18.3mm, Weight: 28.62gms.

Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Clay tobacco pipe fragment. Straight stem and pointed basal spur of a moulded tobacco pipe with wire drawn bore. The narrow diameter of the bore, c.2.2mm, suggests this comes from a relatively recent pipe; similar spurs appear on some pipes dated to the mid-19th century. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1800-1900. Length: 42.3mm, Weight: 3.57g.

Lead weight. Cast discoid weight with bevelled edges, thicker to one side than to the other, grey and unpatinated. The mass does not correspond with recent systems for the measurement of weight. The fresh state of the metal must introduce significant doubt as to whether this object saw use at an early date. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1500-1900. Diameter: 39.0mm, Thickness: 8.1mm, Weight: 80.08gms.

Lead and iron wheel. Cast rouletting wheel with a central axle hole of diameter c.2mm, comprising a cylindrical lead drum studded with six offset pairs of iron pins set so as to produce a regular series of depressions when rolled across a surface. The drum may have a larger diameter on one side than the other - a point only discerned when preparing the image of the object, which if correct would have caused it to describe a circle when in use. Each side has a circular patch around the hole where a handle would have retained the axle. This might have served for the preparation of paper…

Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Copper alloy vessel fragment. Cast leg from a pipkin, aquamanile or small cauldron. The leg is of plano-convex section, flat behind and with a slight though abraded ridge on its front face. The leg terminates in a probably tripartite sub-triangular foot, possibly modelled on an animal paw. This feature would be apt to an item of tableware, but the object is heavily sooted, suggesting its last use was on the hearth. Suggested date: Medieval, 1200-1350. Length: 34.9mm, Height (in use): 29mm, Width: 25.5mm, Thickness: 15.1mm, Weight: 43.21gms.

Object type: SHOT
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Lead shot. Cast ball, possibly with slight traces of a circumferential belt arising from 'set up' at the time of firing. The mass, at just under one averdepois ounce, would be apt to a smoothbore firearm of military specification. The slight surface irregularity of this ball suggests local rather than industrial manufacture. However, the total lack of patination may indicate a later date than is usual, unless disturbance from a sealed context can be adduced. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1850. Diameter: 17.1mm, Weight: 27.77gms.

White metal, of light weight, probably aluminium. Fragment from a hollow strut or component of external diameter c.100mm, very slightly flared at the top. The metal is coated overall - including all fracture surfaces - in a thick buff corrosion deposit. This is probably from an aircraft, and the extent of corrosion may arise from the intense heat of a catastrophic explosion and fire. The finder has previously reported similarly distressed debris from the documented site of a downed British bomber. The material was kindly identified by members of the North Lincolnshire Pottery Research…

Object type: BUTTON
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Copper alloy button fragment. Flat discoid and probably composite button, comprising two layers of sheet metal pressed together with a rim, and bearing a crude stamped device on the front. The device appears quasi-heraldic, and presents a creature sitting facing right in an oval panel, flanked by the fronds of a wreath, with a crude crown above. A loop was perhaps formerly held between the layers of metal, whence it has been torn away. The execution is almost rustic, and in strong contrast to the factory-made series of livery buttons, though this might be a crude and early imitation o…

County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Copper alloy metalworking debris. Fragment of copper alloy with a bubbled surface on one side and possibly with flow lines on the other. One 'end' is dished, and this, together with a possibly ridged section of the object, might suggest this to be the remains of a cauldron leg detached and melted down during an episode of recycling. This identification would suggest a Medieval date for this activity. Suggested date: possibly Medieval, 1200-1500. Height: 43mm, Width: 35mm, Thickness: 25mm, Weight: 83.68gms
