Title
Papal Bulla, probably Innocent IV: nr Downham, Ribble Valley, Lancs.
Description
English: One half of a Papal Bulla (lead). The lead seal was possibly broken at its weakest point - where the cord went through the lead - maybe by the recipient himself. On the obverse is the head of St Peter (on the right) still visible and the letters ()PA()PE which should be read as SPASPE (abbreviation for St PAul and St PEter). On the reverse, the letters INN()CENT()PPI(I?) are still visible. It is thus possible that it was a bulla of Innocent III (1179-80) or Innocent IV (IIII) (1243-54), more likely, however, the latter since Innocent III's reign was considerably shorter.
