Abstract


A stone mould was discovered in a field several miles south of Jedburgh. The author describes the mould and speculates that it may have been used to caste brooches for pilgrims visiting the Borders, or for members of the church. He suggests that it could date from the late medieval period, and consults several other antiquarians about the design.
