County: Cheshire East
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast copper alloy fragment of a late medieval/post-medieval bell. Only half of the bell remains, the clapper is missing also.
The top is flat and hexagonal when viewed from above. It has a circular perforation, presumably for an attachment loop. It looks as though the bell has been mis-cast as the top is not level.
The lower part of the outside surface of the bell is decorated. It has two raised lines around the circumference. Below the second are two sets of 3 incised vertical lines.

Record ID: LVPL-426334
Object type: FLAKE
Broad period: PALAEOLITHIC
County: Cheshire East
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Edge damaged flint flake from the the prehistoric period.
It is roughly triangular in section and in plan. It is made from a grey flint. The dorsal face has a central ridge which is broken where the flint is notched. The ventral face is smooth although slight cnchoidal ripples can be seen. One long side of the flint has been broken and chipped, probably when it has been in the ground.
This is likely to be a bi-polar flake which would explain the different fracture lines.

Object type: CARVING
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Flintshire
Workflow stage: Published
A carved stone head, in a light grey coloured stone, possibly limestone. It is carved only on one face with a near-triangular face, triangular nose, heavy almond-shaped eyes and rather gash-like mouth. The other faces are rough and not carved into, it appears that this stone was made to go into a wall.
This head was found under the floorboards of a house with two 19th century medicine jars (LVPL-5587A5) and so it is likely that it dates to around that time. However it is very hard to date these type of finds precisely.
This style of carving could be attributed to the 'Celtic h…

Two 19th century brown stoneware jars which have a slip or glaze. They both taper towards the top where there is a shallow rolled lip. One is smaller than the other and the smaller one has lost some of its glaze/slip.
These jars were found under the floorboards of a house with a stone carved face see LVPL-554BD1. Noramlly these objects would be too late to record on the PAS database but due to their association with the stone head they have been recorded.
