An incomplete Post Medieval copper alloy whistle dating to circa AD 1700-1900. The whistle is cylindrical with a bottleneck terminal with flat-topped knop or lug which would likely have been utilised in suspension. The body of the whilst is circular sectioned and hollow. It terminates in a worn and jagged break but would have contained two opposed circular perforations or rectangular slot on one side from which compressed air could escape creating the pitch. Similar examples can be seen recorded under SWYOR-FE25B1 and DYFED-639E1C Diameter: 16.7mm; Height; 51.1m; Weight: 14.22g.

On the upper surface of the mouthpiece there is incised decoration comprising a single transverse grooved border from which multiple longitudinal grooves run to the sound hole. The main body of the whistle has additional incised deco…
