An incomplete lead alloy harness mount of post-medieval date.

The central boss is damaged and may have been decorated. In the depression between the central and outer bosses there is a raised decoration of touching circles. On the reverse the surface is slightly concave and there is a remnant of what may have been the method of fixing this decorated lead item. Similar examples which can be found on the PAS database is LVPL-…

A Post Medieval lead token or decoration. The token is circular with raised decoration on the obverse. On the obverse the decoration depicts a shield overlaid with a long cross. The top two quarters of the shield may have a letter in each whilst the bottom two quarters contain a pellet each. The piece is bound by a border of raised zig zag lines. The reverse is blank and flat suggesting that it could have been attached - maybe to leather. The item is slightly buckled probably as a result of damage by a plough.
