A post-medieval cast lead object: a palm guard, for use by a leather worker to protect the palm whilst stitching. In plan it is oval in shape, pointed at one end: it is 55.9mm in length, and 49mm at the widest part. It is convex, with a maximum thickness of about 15.4mm. The domed surface is marked by one incised line at one edge and the flat underside does not seem to have any visible markings. Bailey (1995, 64-65) dates such objects to the 17th century onwards.
