A complete and slightly worn post-Medieval copper-alloy spherical animal "crotal" bell (1770-1813). The sub-rectangular suspension loop at the top is about 10.8mm high, 15.6mm wide, 4.7mm thick and has a roughly square perforation. The upper and lower hemispheres are divided by a prominent horizontal circumferential joining rib. About half way down the side of the upper hemisphere, at either side and opposite each other, there is a circular sound hole. One is smaller than the other. Two sound holes in the lower hemisphere are integral with a sound "slit". The upper hemisphere is …

An incomplete Medieval to post-Medieval copper-alloy clapper bell (c. 1400-c. 1700). Part of the walls and the clapper are missing. The walls of this sub-conical bell flare and form concave sides. The narrowed integral suspension loop narrows in width and thickness. The circular hole has a diameter of 3.4mm. There is a small lump of casting debris to one side of the suspension loop. The outer surface is pitted and corroded and has a possible founder's mark, a letter 'T'. On the outer surface, close to the plain rim, there are two parallel circumferential ridges which are barely …
