A base from a post-medieval Cistertian ware vessel (c. 1500-1650). The base is flat, circular, and has a dark grey, reduced fabric with frequent calcareous inclusions. A thick, dark brown/black glaze is visible on the basal edge and also on the interior. Sitting on top of the glaze on the interior is a large, irregular layer of what appears to be molten lead. WIthin this is an oval pellet of lead. The break of the vessel wall is smooth and appears burnt in places. It is possible that this vessel was used to melt lead.

A lead alloy or pewter flanged dish of probable late Roman date. Description The dish is fragmented but is nearly a complete vessel. The plate has a circular base with a short wall which runs vertical from the base at an angle of approximately 80 degrees.
