Roman casket fittings. The wooden casket no longer survives, however the copper alloy fittings survive. This comprises of 13 rings, 8 lions head mounts, two handles and a corner strap. The fittings from this casket can be found throughout the Roman period, however this example is most likely a late 1st to 2nd century example due to the context in which it was found.

Object type: BELL
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Shropshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Three fragments from a cast copper alloy bell of probable Roman date (100 – 300 AD). Although the fragments do not fit together it is likely that they come from the same bell. Originally it is likely that the bell was sub-circular in plan and domed or arched (bell shaped) in profile. The largest of the fragments consists of the upper portion of the bell with an integral cast sub-circular suspension loop positioned at the peak of the dome. This loop is complete, however, the upper edge is thinner than the others; this suggests that it has been worn through use. There is no evidence fo…
