An incomplete lead or lead alloy unidentified object, of probably the Post Medieval period, dating from c. AD 1600 - c. AD 1800. The object is broadly oval (tear drop shape) in plan and oval in section. The object consists of two parts, a triangular or conical top which is attached to the broadly spherical base with a conical lug. The base is broadly spherical in plan and is D shaped in section, it has a flattened top. In the centre of the flattened top is a conical lug which holds the cone shaped top in place. The cone shaped top has a flattened base and a U shaped groove or cut o…

A complete lead or lead alloy shot of the Post Medieval period, probably dating from c. AD 1600 - c. AD 1700. The ball is broadly spherical. The casting seam is prominent around the circumference of the object, and has been slightly misaligned, causing a sideways L shape or step on one side of the ball. The casting sprue is also visible and has a deep dimple inside the sprue scar, which suggests the lead was overheated during the making of the ball, thus causing a cavity. The ball shows little evidence of being fired. The ball displays post depositional damage in the form of minor …

12 complete, lead or lead alloy shot of the Post Medieval period, probably dating from c. AD 1600 - c. AD 1700. The balls are spherical. On numbers 8, 4 and 2 the casting seam is prominent. The casting sprue is evident on all the balls. The sprue on number 8 and 2 shows a deep dimple in the centre which could indicate the lead was over heated when the ball was made. Number 11 shows signs of 'set up' in the form of a flattened circumference. There is little further evidence to suggest the balls have been fired. All display post depositional damage in the form of minor scratches, dep…

Nine complete, lead or lead alloy shot of the Post Medieval period, probably dating from c. AD 1600 - c. AD 1700. The balls are broadly spherical. On numbers 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7 the casting seam is prominent. The casting sprue is evident on numbers 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 and 9. Number 8 shows signs of a pinched base, which could be evidence of firing but could also be explained by gas erosion. Number 2 has two casting seams, aligned at right angles to each other and two casting sprues one on the side and one at the base. There is little further evidence to suggest the balls have been fired. …
