Other Description:
Seal 17/1/43 picked up on 04/05/11 was found among a plethora of nails and next to a battery terminal. However the second identical seal was still attached to the steel banding that would have secured the lid to a container 30cm in diameter. Above the year is inscribed the Roman numeral ‘III’. There are no distinguishing marks on the rim or the surviving metal lid so the contents of the container remain a mystery.
Historic Context:
It is important to find items that can clearly date the context in which the artifacts are being recovered. So it was beneficial to find two seals dated 1940 in the collection of finds from this site.
