A complete two part Post Medieval lead cloth or alnage (duty) seal, dating to c. 1550-1750. Both circular addorsed discs survive along with the connecting loop.

In cross section the seal is wedge shape tapering from the outer edge towards the loop. Two holes can be seen on both side seams.
Dimensions: 24mm in length; 18.5mm in width; 7mm thick at the outer edge, 4mm under the loop; 14.7g in weight.

A lead cloth seal probably of Medieval date. This artefact weighs 7.71g, however this weight includes dried mud that can be seen filling the space between the two discs. The discs are sub-circular in shape. They have a diameter measurement of 21.5mm on one axis and, due to the object having been bent, a bent measurement of 20.0mm when measured with a flexible dress-maker’s tape-measure on the axis at 90 degrees from the previously given dimension.

A lead artefact, probably one part of a two part lead cloth seal dating from the post-Medieval period, about AD 1500 - 1800. It is flat and discoid, and there are faint traces of an impressed design on both sides, most of which are very worn and unclear. Those elements that can be seen consist largely of short, straight lines. The seal has a light grey patina. It is 17.2mm, in diameter and 1.6mm thick. It weighs 2.16g.
It is possible that this is a lead token of some type, but the diameter and thickness suggest that the identification as a seal is more likely.
