An incomplete lead alloy uncertain artefact of uncertain function and form, probably of Post Medieval dating (AD 1600 to AD 1800).
The artefact is cylindrical in shape. The ends are incomplete. Along the length of the body, are longituditual ridges, with possible zig zag decoration between them.
It has a length of 19.5 mm, is 11.3 mm wide and 8.6 mm thick. It weighs 11.7 g.
