In the course of the restoration in 1853 of the great church of St. Botolph at Boston in Lincolnshire the floor of the nave was removed and excavation took place with a view to determining the site of a more ancient church thought to have existed before the great nave was built. In the course of these works certain small objects were discovered in the ground, and a list of them is given in the History of Boston by Pishey Thompson, Boston, 1856. One of them, which is preserved in the library over the south-west porch, is a copper disc with Limoges champlevé enamel. It was exhibited before the Society at its ordinary meeting on the 30th January 1930 by the vicar of Boston, the Rev. Canon Hutchinson, at my invitation, as it had attracted my attention when I visited the library in June 1929. It is represented on pl. XIII, and Mr. Thompson, who considered it not of much interest, describes it as the foot of a candlestick of latten with shields of arms and foliage of the fourteenth century. It is possible to differ with him as to the interest of the object, for that appears to be quite considerable. As to its date, it is probably quite early in the fourteenth century, if not at the end of the thirteenth. As to its use, that must in any case be quite doubtful.
