Summary
A hollow cylindrical object made entirely of lead, possibly a drain cover. On the top is a circular lead cover, the edges of which have been folded downwards. The bottom edges of the cylinder have been bent outwards to form a flange. This flange is decorated with a ribbed crescent-shaped pattern. The inventory slip for this object suggested it was a drain cover.
