Lead alloy whistle tapering from a broad mouthpiece to a D-shaped sound-hole beyond which it is of consistent diameter as far as the distal end. This is now open but would have been blocked by a stopper of some sort. Decoration around the mouthpiece consists of a band of fine tendril ornament. This is separated from a field of fine pellets by a low rib. The pellets extend to the distal edge of the sound hole. A casting seam extends the full length along both sides. Length 26mm. Mouthpiece 9.5 x 6mm externally. Other end 4.5 x 4mm. Perhaps 17th - 18th century.
