An incomplete cast copper-alloy handle and hinge fitting, probable for a tankard, of post-medieval date (c.1550-1700). Description: The handle is rectangular in plan and rectangular in cross-section with a curve of 45 degrees to a break at one end and two lugs with a hole for a pin at the other. The break is worn. The two lugs have a straight-sided slot between them, both have a 2mm diameter hole all the way through that would allow for the pins of a hinge.

An incomplete Post Medieval glass Lion mask stem fragment from a goblet dating from the mid 16th to mid 17th century. The knop has two opposed frontal lion faces with raised foliate bosses and swag between. The knop is mould blown.

A post-medieval lead-alloy frame, used to repair the stem of a glass drinking vessel, probably dating 17th - 18th century. The frame is comprised of 2 circular rings and four vertical, lead-alloy strips connecting the two rings. It would have been moulded to the contours of the vessel, with the rings wrapped around the stem, one above and one below the breakage. There are small fragments of colourless glass remaining in the smaller ring of the frame. Repairs using lead frames were common in this period as glass was so expensive and prone to breakage (Willmott, 2001, 96-97). Simi…

A fragment of a Post Medieval glass drinking vessel dating to first half of the 17th century. The remaining fragment consists of the base of a glass beaker with relatively straight walls. There is an applied rouletted decoration around the base as a form of foot. The base of the vessel is concave and fluted as are the walls of the beaker. There are additional applied lines that run around the exterior of the beaker. The glass would originally have been colourless but now has a translucent milky blue film over it where the glass is beginning to degrade. This vessel is similar in d…

A possible lid-part (consisting of the thumb-rest) from the two-part handle of a small post-medieval drinking vessel/ tankard, dating to the 16th-18th century. This object would have attached to a bar at the top of the main body of the handle by its worn-through loop, and would have attached to a separate (possibly wood or leather) lid with its in situ rivet. The object consists of a solid C-shaped loop, the perforation worn through to the edge (old wear). To either end of the C-shape is a horizontal, rearward projection, one circular (the thumb rest, being flat to the reverse and sl…

A fragment of Post Medieval glass drinking vessel with lead alloy mend dating 17th - 18th century. The vessel has a square cigar stem type or type 3 (Brain, 2000, 2) and the remaining fragment comprises part of the stem. The fragment consists of the lower part of the cup-shaped bowl above a shoulder sloping gradually to a bulb. The bulb would have sat above the squat-cigar stem though only a small part remains. The break has occurred at the point where the shoulder meets the bulb. The glass is colourless. This style of vessel dates to the 17th-18th century. An attempt has been made…

The knop was broken and reassembled by the finder. Willmott (2003:3) writes "The origin of this name is uncertain, but the stem is so-called due to a series of diamond-shaped bosses that run in vertical panels up the stem, creating a negative 'ladder' impression.'"

Part of a post medieval blown glass goblet of mid- 16th to 17th century date. Only the lower part of the bowl, the connecting merese disc and the stub of the stem survive. The bowl had a rounded base but the sides are missing, it is 1.8mm thick at the upper point. The merese (disc which connects the bowl and stem) is 24.3mm in diameter. The top of the stem is 8.7mm in diameter at the break. Th entire piece is 22.5mm tall and weighs 6.62g. From the narrow upper part of the stem it is likely the goblet had an inverted baluster or mould blown stem but too little survives to identify i…

A complete copper-alloy two-part handle from a drinking vessel (tankard) of probable post-Medieval date (c. 1550 - c. 1650). The handle is complete and the mechanism for lifting the lid survives but the lid itself is missing. The handle is irregular in plan and profile. In plan the handle is curved in a swan-neck style. It tapers from the top, terminating at the base in a narrow sub-rectangular flange. At the top it is 11.1mm in width and the width at the base is 5.7mm. The flange would have been attached (perhaps soldered) to the side of the vessel. The handle is 'D'-shaped in cros…

Part of a post medieval glass stem dating to c1550 - 1650. The almost colourless mould-blown stem would have come from a goblet and has broken at the two narrowest points. The remaining section of stem is broadly conical, widening out quickly from the circular sectioned solid connecting rod at the top, then having distict shoulders from which point it narrows in a convex curve to the lower constriction where it has broken across the open part. The mould design is of two opposed lion faces with a side boss of five pellets and linking festoon of five pellets below. Gadrooning above and…
