An incomplete post medieval lead filled granite stone horse tether, most likely dating to the 19th century AD. The stone is very large, heavy, and would have been spherical in shape, but with a flat base (a large fragment of the stone has broken off). On the top of the stone is a recess which is now filled with lead holding an incomplete iron loop and ring in place. Once set, the ring would have been secure enough to safely tether a horse, no matter what size. The attachment of the ring is still visible, but the bands which would have made up the ring have broken off, and do not mo…

A complete post medieval lead token, dating to the broad period AD 1540- AD 1800. The token is rather flat, and holds a pale grey, almost white pallor. There is evidence of decoration on both the obverse and reverse surfaces of the token, but the surfaces are too worn for a definite interpretation. Because of this, a manufacturer, location and precise date cannot be retrieved, as well as a comparison from literature. The length of the fragment is 20.15mm, thickness is 1.76mm and it weighs 4.88g.
