A complete lead-alloy bag seal of Post-Medieval date, c.AD 1750 - 1900. The seal is roughly tear drop shaped with a rectangular cross section.

There is also a slight circular indent surrounding the square. Towards the bottom of the tear drop shape, there is three triangular indents pointing down. The rear face of the seal…

Object type: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Liverpool
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete lead alloy object of uncertain function. The object is semi-circular in plan and is flat. Each face is undecorated, rough and pitted. Due to its undiagnostic nature it can not be dated closely however the condition of the lead suggests a Medieval to Post-Medieval date is likely. The object may have functioned as a plam guard however these tend to be D-shaped in cross-section allowing them to sit comfortably in the hand. Palm guards were for use by a leather worker to protect the palm whilst stitching. Bailey (1995, 64-65) dates such objects to the 17th century onwards…
