One half of a two part post medieval lead bag or cloth seal dating to c.AD1660-1685. The seal is uniface, featuring a bust to right possibly of Charles II.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A lead spindle whorl of probable post-medieval date, though there is at the moment no comprehensive dating schema for whorls and so this can be considered a rough estimate. The object is of a compressed biconical shape, both surfaces being decorated with curvilinear and rectilinear geometric designs.

Cast lead alloy toy miniature horn book showing the alphabet, dating to the post medieval period (c.AD 1540-1700). The object is sub-rectangular in shape and is decorated with four lines of raised letters. The first line is prefixed by a +: ‘+ADCC / EOH / [][]APF / RSEL’. The letters are not in alphabetical order and a few appear to be repeated. The top line of letters is divided from the second line by two traverse lines, the third and fourth lines of letters are divided by a line of pellets. Damage across the centre of the object obscures some of the third line. A raised border …

A collected group of lead shot, nearly all found within the boundaries of one field. Whilst the volume and type of shot would point to a Civil War origin, other material in the field has only so far yielded probable post-war dates. Some shot are irregularly shaped or possibly impacted, and at least one piece has visible remnants of a sprue still attached. The material varies in weight from around 2g to over 16g. # Weight / g Diameter / mm Comments 1 9.5 …

Two objects of lead found close together that superficially resemble thimbles but resist categorisation; they are solid and appear to be indented at the centres of their tops, the outer surfaces marked with dimples in the manner of a normal thimble. The regularity of the dimples indicates a post-medieval to modern date. Other thimbles of a similar age havE been found nearby ( LVPL-B9AA89 and LVPL-B9CF0C ). 1:- Height: 17.2mm, diameter 17mm, 33.30g 2:- Height: 16.2, diameter 17.2, 30.80g

A conical, tapering lead object with a central iron part that is now only present as a rust shaped discolouration at the tip of the cone, probably the remains of a suspension point. The base of the object is flat with some small possible drill/adjustment holes and the sides are marked with numerous incisions, which are probably the result of plough and soil damage.

County: Oldham
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An unidentified lead object of sub rectangular shape, uniface, the lower unornamented and the upper side with three large raised domes arranged linearly. This object is very similar to LVPL-7D2BAD but is of lesser condition, this example having been flexed or twisted which has distorted the shape. Its purpose and age are unclear. THere are lighter points on the back of the object that may suggest the former presence of lugs. The object is a smooth grey colour, with brown patches.
