Lead minaiture ship, probably the type known as a hulc, (which was to oust the cog by the early 15th century - Spencer, 1998, p81). There are has five recessed panels on either side, which are not in keeping with the style of strakes depicted on other comparable examples (cf Spencer, p80, nos. 34, 34a, 35a and 35b). There are two knops on the deck (it is likely that there was once five or possiby six them judging by the irregular surface). The stern is an intact sterncastle. Again the depiction is curious as it is different to the previously mentioned examples, having a single moul…
