2. Cupping gla.s.s. lead metal. Folded rim; bulbou.s 

 body: probably traces of a pontil mark on ba.se. 

 The drawing is reconstructed from fragments of 

 two examples found together in the same stratum. ■'-' 

 18th century. .\4. 



.1. Pharmaceutical phial. Pale green glass; neck and 

 upper body fragment only; short tubular neck; 

 angular shoulder; lip only slightly everted. Proba- 

 bly mid-1 8th centur\-. A2. 



4. Pharmaceutical phial. Pale blue-green glass; neck 

 and upper body fragment onl\-; short tubular 

 neck; angular shoulder; rim everted. Probably of 

 the same period as no. 3, although the wider lip 

 often is indicative of an earlier date. F2. 



5. Tumbler base, heavy lead glass. Base slighth 

 rising with an unground pontil mark; interior wall 

 sloping sharply inwards towards the bottom. Per- 

 haps first half of 18th centurx . Surface. The 

 bases of two other tumblers were among the finds 

 from the pit. but neither is illustrated. These differ 



r'or parallels see Country I.ifr. .•\iigust 12, 1954. 



from the base shown in that they are much lighter, 

 the interior walls do not slope inwards towards the 

 bottom, and the glass is more transparent. Perhaps 

 third quarter of 18th century. .\2. J2. 



6. Lead glass handle from \essel of uncertain form. 

 ISth century. H2. 



7. Lead glass fragment from object of uncertain 

 purpose. A double collar or perhaps an annulated 

 knop above a flat piece of glass, more scratched 

 on the underside than on the upper; metal trans- 

 parent and of good quality. It has been suggested 

 that the fragrnent may be from a lid or, if in\erted. 

 might be part of a pedestal-based dish. P3. 



8. Wine glass bowl, lead metal. Possibh from glass 

 of trumpet form (see fig. 32, no. 7). A group of 

 three scored lines creating a wavy pattern around 

 the bowl was caused bv deca\' in stress marks 

 created during manufacture. ProbabK after about 

 1740. J3. 



9. Fragment of lead plate glass. .Scalloped edge, and
