This week's #findsfriday is a cast lead #Viking probable gaming piece https://t.co/L49vxyGwkc 800-1000. It's thought that hollow examples were gaming pieces as it allowed them to be stacked and it may have been used in the board game of Hnefatafl @findsorguk LIN-C587F9
#findsfriday special edition! Rare three-dimensional bucket escutcheon in the form of a human figure, a bull's and an avian's head, Late #IronAge to #Roman period. Possibly Europa and the Bull motif seen in Roman mosaics @findsorguk (LIN-B96982) @RomanFindsGrp @LtrPrehistFinds

The reservoir was built in 1912 to supply #Lincoln with clean water after the horrible 1904-1905 typhoid outbreak (which killed 113 people). It is one of the oldest subterranean reservoirs in the country and holds 27 million litres of water!
