West Country Lead Green Man find.

ancient green man

This amazing early Green Man was recently found by a chap metal 
detecting in the Mendips area.  

Size 65mm X 65mm.
Construction appears to be lead.

So far the finders referral to the Portable Antiquities Scheme has not resulted in being able to shed a lot of information on this find as to date or usage.

Suggestions around 13 - 14th Cen?  

It remains a fascinating enigma.

Suggestions so far are that it may have been a vessel mount.

If you have any ideas please feel free to let me know and I will pass them on to the finder.

We were asked by the finder to produce replicas in the form of a mould. 

 These are exact copies of the original.
