A lead pot mend of possible Roman to post medieval date (c. AD43-1600). It consists of a broadly rectangular piece of lead with a narrower longitudinal plug projecting from one face which would have filled the hole in the original vessel. The lead has a thick white patina. Lead pot mends were used throughout the Roman and medieval periods as a result these are extremely difficult to date unless dateable ceramic material survives with the repair. The pot mend measures 44.02mm in length, 15.69mm maximum width, 6.57mm minimum width, is 10.28mm thick and weighs 39.22g.
