A lead alloy uniface token which is probably late medieval or early post medieval. The token is a circular disc,18mm in diameter and 2.5mm thick. There is a design on one face which consists of a voided cross in relief with the central square being solid. There may have originally been a beaded border, but only minute traces of this survive.
