Description	Post-medieval silver thimble with regular indentations in the form of small circles on the body, plain band at the opening with engraved initials on the outside, E.B., for the original owner. The thimble is torn at the opening and has been mended recently. A second mark is stamped on the plain band, possibly CS, perhaps a maker's mark. Found as Treasure Trove on January 2004 at Lydham by Mr D Llewellyn with a metal detector. Acquired by HOC Museum.
