A post-medieval lead-alloy cloth seal. The seal comprises two sub-circular discs and a folded connecting strip. One disc bears the relief-stamped legend 'AG/LSS/BA', with traces of a border around. This is a seal of the Norwich Weavers' Company, struck between c. 1650 and 1705. The letters on the reverse are probably those of the wardens of the company (see Egan 1995: 46).

Lead cloth seal fragment. Cast disc with stamped motif within a granulated outer circle. The motif is a lion rampant with a short vertical bar below its left or lower paw; kindly identified by Paul Cannon as the numeral 1, standing for one penny duty paid.. Though associated with the Low Countries, the lion rampant appears more widely as a device on cloth seals. Paul kindly adds: 'I think this is a single disc from a four-part cloth seal.
