Object type: CANNON BALL
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Warwickshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Post Medieval (late 16th to 17th century) probable cannon ball: a broadly hemispherical corroded cast iron object which is heavily corroded. There are no signs of makers marks or casting seams, but these may be distorted by corrosion. It weighs 233g and measures c.65mm diameter.

These suggest that this ball might have been fired from a Robinet cannon. As this type endured from the later 16th century through the following century, with sligh…
