Incomplete medieval to post medieval leg from a cooking vessel such as a cauldron, posnet or skillet dating to the period c. AD1300 - 1700. The leg has a worn break at the top and bottom and is D-shaped in cross-section with a central mid-rib running down the front. Traces of sooting are visible. The vessels to which these were attached were usually of a tripod form and were widely used from circa AD 1200-1700 for serving and cooking. Butler and Green (2003) 15, state 'there is evidence that (cast copper alloy) metal cooking vessels became increasingly common during the 13th and 14…

The lid or cap of an unidentified vessel dating to the seventeenth or eighteenth century AD. The lid is circular in plan with a rim which has become crushed. The upper surface of the lid is decorated with an integrally-cast motif of a face in low relief within a grooved circular border. Outside the border, the face is surrounded by radial ribs, perhaps intended to represent the sun's rays. See NMS-9F24B3 for a parallel. The object measures 35mm in diameter and 5mm in thickness.

A Post-medieval ceramic fragment uncertain function, probably structural and decorative, probably dating to c. AD 1700-1800+. North Devon Gravel-tempered ware fabric. A sub-rectangular ceramic fragment, rectangular in cross section and with a potentially up-curving projection from one of its short sides. The projection and one edge are broken, with relatively laminar, unabraded breaks. The fabric is hard fired, oxidised pink-orange with a reduced grey core, containing an abundant, sub-angular quartz temper (

An incomplete copper alloy trebuchet or tumbrel-type folding coin balance, Approximately half of the tumbrel survives, consisting of half of the vertical casing and half of the balance arm. Part of the hinge mechanism survives. The other side of the balance arm has been broken off. The arm is attached to the rectangular casing, articulating around a transverse axis bar across a retangular aperture in the frame. The casing is a tapering rectangular bar, flattened and thinned at one end and terminating in a point, probably for fixing it to a flat surface. The other end is hollowed on th…

Lead alloy toy gun fragment. Hollow cast end of the stock of a toy musket or pistol, with a probably lentoid plain end, and with scrolls of vegetal ornament on its outer side. A finished edge along the upper side may suggest that this is one of two halves joined at a longitudinal seam. Neither such a construction nor the material used here would be suitable for a working miniature weapon taking a charge of black powder. Examples of toy guns from London are attributed to the 17th century. However, the decoration may be wilfully archaic, possibly in allusion to the decorated weaponry of…

Lead alloy toy rocket fragment. Cast tail of a solid cast cylindrical or cigar-shaped object with four equidistantly spaced fins at its end. A groove or paired ridges extend longitudinally between fins on opposite sides of the object. This is probably the tail of a toy rocket or aeroplane with a detachable head: a paper percussion cap would fit between the head and the body of the rocket, and would explode when the head made impact. This reporter recalls both rocket and aeroplanes on sale in toyshops of the 1960s; whether there were earlier versions is uncertain. Suggested date: Moder…

A fragment of cast lead sheet of structural gauge [4.7mm thick] with a knife cut end and upper edge, and with scars from the cutting of coarse teeth with a spacing of c.3 per cm and a basal width of c.3mm, continuing to within 5mm of the edge of the comb. The upper edge was cut as a gentle curve to produce a concave-backed form with expanded ends, presumably originally symetrical. The teeth were cut [probably] with a knife held at an angle, leaving thin scars on both sides of the comb. Other marks also appear, including a rough saltire on the broad end on one side, and …

This is a Forsyth & Egan (2005) Type 8 Design 1: a multi-component watch with a plain case, angular profile and integrally cast pendant loop. The surviving element here is the dial which would have been recessed and supported on an internal flange just below the rim of the case with the rim pushed over the edge of the dial (see LON-98FC10 for a more complete example). The dial plate has a circumferential groove which encloses the chapter ring which is marked with engraved Roman hour numerals I-XII and sla…

There is no border around the base. The thimble is complete but worn and with slight damage around the edge of the base. The thimble is of a heavy-duty type with the metal fairly thick, around 1.5mm at the base, thickening towards the dome. Egan (2010) illustrates a similar thimble on p.267, fig.206, no.831 dating from c.1400-1450. Read (1988) illustrates a similar example on p.7…
