Fragment of a devotional plaque A fragment of a double-sided plaque, cast on one side with a possible Madonna and child, and on the other a scene with three saints. The item is possibly a Catholic devotional token, not necessarily English in origin, judging by the Madonna figure's veil and cloak. The plaque has three surviving projecting knops. The object is probably of silver, but as the style and facture suggest a post-1706 date, possibly 19th century or later, the object is not thought to qualify as Treasure under the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996.
