A lead alloy or pewter flanged dish of probable late Roman date.
Description
The dish is fragmented but is nearly a complete vessel. The plate has a circular base with a short wall which runs vertical from the base at an angle of approximately 80 degrees.

The form of rim suggests this belongs to Peal type 4b (Peal 1967). The central part of the base is made from a circular sheet of lead alloy. This was either soldered to the rest of…

Object type: BELL
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Nottinghamshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A possible fragment of a large post-medieval crotal bell. The fragment is from the body of a large spherical object which is decorated on the exterior with moulded fish scales. It is possible that this is from the lower half of a crotal bell, such as BH-B72FA0. The relatively large size of the present example might preclude this identification, however.

Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Nottinghamshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A post-medieval copper alloy crotal bell. The bell is spherical and has an integral square loop at the top. A moulded band runs around te hemisphere. The upper hemisphere has two circular holes. The lower hemisphere has two circular holes joined by a channel. Surrounding the channel is an incised sunburst design and the letters IH (or HI). An iron pea survives.
