The bowl of a post-medieval clay tobacco pipe broken at its junction with the stem. The bowl is swollen, convex curved between the mouth and heel on both sides and projects out over the heel. The mouth is parallel to the stem. The sub-oval flat heel projects only a little from the base of the bowl and is wider and longer than the base, starting level with the stem. This large heel is stamped with the maker's mark, in this case the incuse letters GEO / WEBB / IN / CHARD within a stamped pellet border. The bowl has a milled row of indented triangles just below the rim, it is slightly ir…

The heel of a post-medieval clay tobacco pipe together with the broken stem and vestigial bowl. The bowl has been largely lost to a ragged old break. The flat is broadly circular. It is stamped with the maker's mark, in this case the neat, seriffed incuse letters . IEF ./FRY . H/[V]NT; no border is visible. The stem is 9.4mm in diameter at the break with an off centre hole 2.9mm in diameter. The maker's name, Jeffry Hunt, is well documented in the local literature with examples known from Taunton (Leach 1984, 145-146; refs. 17, 18), dated c. AD 1650-1690.
